Our report, published today, finds that young people from more privileged backgrounds are far more confident and adept at navigating their way through the education system and careers, than their less well-off peers... 1/ @educationgovuk @bphillipsonMP bit.ly/4f6bigf

‘What I find most exciting about this is that our evidence shows young people from the least affluent backgrounds can benefit most from #workexperience. How rare is that when we find an initiative that can be that targeted to disadvantage’. Next up, our CEO @nick_brook spoke about the power of work experience, particularly in boosting social mobility and filling in the very knowledge gaps identified by the ‘assumed knowledge’ research.

A new report from @speakrs4schools exposes glaring inequalities in young people’s access to knowledge of the education system and careers. NAHT assistant general secretary, @JamesJkbowen, “This report shines a useful spotlight on the way that disadvantage can manifest itself in all sorts of different forms throughout a young person’s life."

“Where you are born and who you are born to can play a pivotal role in determining your life chances in the UK." A new report today from @speakrs4schools reveals the knowledge gap between students of uni grads and those without degree-holding parents. tinyurl.com/3e76rr8f

Knowledge of how the system works and how to navigate it are learnt through the experiences and conversations had from the earliest years of a young person’s life. We need to ensure all young people have access to opportunities that can demystify future careers... New from me ⬇️

But most exciting of all, our evidence shows that whilst all can benefit from work experience, those from less affluent backgrounds can benefit the most. In other words, the more experiences we provide, the fairer it gets. 8/8

Experiences of work can help even-the-odds by giving fair access to those ‘things worth knowing’, from primary school onwards. Evaluation of our programmes show that work experience is particularly effective at filling-the-gaps in the very areas that this report highlights... 7/
