Region Portfolio: 14-19 Education and skills workshops with young people

Teens chatting

ECOTEC ran a series of creative workshops in 14-19 Pathfinder areas based in each of the nine Government Office regions. The workshops gathered young people's views and ideas on aspects of the 14-19 reforms including: Diplomas; Raising the Participation Age; 14-19 Prospectus; Exam Access; Functional Skills; Collaboration; Transition post-16; and new progression measures for schools. The workshops were tailored to the local context through a review of Pathfinder activities and stakeholder discussions with Strand leaders, 14-19 Pathfinder Co-ordinators, Connexions, and local schools and colleges. The workshops used innovative and creative exercises to help young people express their views on the 14- 19 reform themes.


The workshops gave a wide range of young people the opportunity to learn about the 14-19 reforms and voice their opinions, with key stakeholders from DfES being present to hear and take on board their views.
