The government backed establishments will be employer-led.

Matthew Fell, Chief UK Policy Director, yesterday said:

"Expanding high-quality technical education and training is a top priority for employers who will welcome this extra investment.

"Institutes of Technology help bridge the gap between A-Levels or T-Levels, and a bachelors or degree apprenticeship – providing higher-level skills, especially in STEM, that businesses tell us time and again they need to succeed. These new Institutes must also help ensure T-Levels are a long-lasting part of our education system and open the door to great careers or further training.”
