'Vocational GCSEs can give every child the opportunity to get great jobs' (opens the original)
Read excerpt
For me, as Education Secretary and as a mum, young people are my priority. Their futures depend on what we do as a Labour government and nothing is a bigger responsibility. That's why this week, Andy and I announced a new swath of vocational GCSEs - putting technical and academic education on equal footing, and giving every young person the skills and experience to thrive in a changing world. This matters because, for too long, technical and vocational education has been neglected. Existing qual
