Vocational Training

Available for over a year

Every day this week the former Conservative MP and universities minister, David Willetts, is examining our education system - stage by stage. Putting politics to one side, he's taking a long hard look at education to challenge some of the conventional wisdom we've all lived with for a long time - and which, he argues, shapes the debate without our even realising it. In this programme, David argues that universities should play a bigger role in vocational training. Apprenticeships, he says, have got far too much attention. Producer: Charlotte McDonald.
