Our new report – written by The Centre for Education and Youth – examines how essential skills improve life outcomes.

This report presents findings from a rapid evidence review, and sets out how essential skills impact upon outcomes in three key areas: education, employment and wellbeing.

Conducted by The Centre for Education and Youth on behalf of the Skills Builder Partnership, the review highlights how the development of essential skills can enhance young people’s life chances.

This important report makes a compelling case for embedding skills education into day-to-day life, be this in education and youth settings, or in training and employment.

The event will feature a summary of key findings, presented by the researchers. In addition, guest speakers will comment on the report’s implications for practice in schools and beyond. There will be a Q&A with the panel, and an opportunity for you to share your thoughts on how the findings will shape your work.

The report will be available to download from our website on the day of the launch.

We look forward to welcoming you on the day.

Thanks!
