Went to @alandavies1 gig last night. He did a brilliant shout out about how his FE college changed his life - for the better. Great to hear. @AoCDavidH

Delighted to welcome @Jacqui_Smith1 as keynote speaker at todayโs HOLEX Winter Network Event! Her inspiring speech highlighted the vital role of adult education in shaping futures and supporting DfEโs goals. #HOLEX #SpeakUp4AdultEd

Productivity is important but so is social integration. The task is now clear. The ACE sector must be the voice of the people and ensure that the implementation of these reforms re-embeds community learning within its work and protects learning for life, work, and health. #HOLEX

Listening to the SofS announcement on the WP - but as yet nothing on adults. And it looks like V levels are for the under 19 only. So what do adults do who want to achieve their first qualification or retraining? @Jacqui_Smith1

Budget day is when the Chancellor and the Work and Pensions Secretary can make adult education a funding priority for older adults as well as 19-24-year-olds says Caroline McDonald, CEO, @HOLEXPolicy.

Huge new agenda but if anyone can do it, Jacqui Smith can. @Jacqui_Smith1

Well done to all students receiving results today.
There are excellent options ahead-whether itโs A levels, T Levels, vocational & technical qualifications or apprenticeship weโll ensure you have access to opportunity & success as part of our Plan for Change. #GCSEResults25

@Jacqui_Smith1 Sector packages - will do little for the 17% of population with no qualifications or the 8.5 million lacking digital skills. Disjointed ideas do not make a skills strategy or change the dial on adults attitude to retraining. We need to LL strategy that is about supporting people

Good over view but nothing for those with few qualifications, poor basic skills or need to retrain into a vocational trade at level 2. โฆ@Jacqui_Smith1โฉ gov.uk/government/speโฆ

Without the investment in adult skills our industrial strategy will be compromised from the start and the benefits bill will increase faster than our economic growth. Itโs not all about higher level skills

Disappointed the Skills chapter in todayโs IS still lacks real incentives for adult learners. Funding favours the already-qualified, backs courses with poor outcomes, and shifts costs from employers to taxpayers. We need a proper Post-16 Skills Strategy. gov.uk/government/colโฆ

Thanks to @NewStatesman for quoting @WEAadulted on the importance of lifelong learning and taking learning to where people are not where policy is comfortable. We need to protect lifelong learning rather than cutting its funding by 6% newstatesman.com/spotlight/techโฆ
