Back to school, back to business: how to fill the skills gap

Panel discussion at the Conservative party conference
The UK will need over one million new science, engineering and technology professionals by 2020. At the moment, not enough young people are getting these skills. Could stronger partnerships between schools and employers solve this looming skills gap?
Join local and national employers, teachers and students to see partnerships in action and discuss how working together could open up opportunities for young people and help them see where study can take them.
