New vocational GCSEs will be introduced from 2029 for 14-year-olds alongside existing core academic subjects in England. The new subjects could include building and construction, business management and finance, and child development. The vocational GCSEs will be designed to allow teenagers to progress at 16 to studying similar courses at college and create a clear pathway for teenagers into different types of work through a ladder of qualifications. A new national target for employers to help create 200,000 work experience opportunities for under 16s is also being set by Prime Minister Andy Burnham, as part of reforms to shake-up the education system to better prepare young people for the world of work.
