Part of 1. Questions to the Minister for Education – in the Senedd at 1:48 pm on 3 July 2019.
I'm sure the Member will be delighted that, just prior to coming to the Chamber this afternoon, I was able to announce in our Seren event that the Seren foundation programme and the principles of Seren, which currently kick in for children after they've done their GCSEs, will now be rolling out for students from year 8. Some of the innovative projects that have already been undertaken in the pilot are working with manufacturing companies, engineers, scientists to expose even younger children to the entire range of opportunities that the wider world has to offer them, and I'm very grateful to the businesses, FE colleges and universities that have been so heavily involved in developing the programme, and I look forward to that being rolled out across the whole of Wales.
