£1.1bn to upskill the UK for future tech roles is too little too late. 📈 In ordinary circumstances, a figure of £1.1bn – the headline-capturing amount the government announced last week to train “over 4,000” UK students in future technologies – wouldn’t be lamentable. Yet, considering total public spending on education was £116bn in 2022-23, according to the Institute for Fiscal Studies – down 8% from the 2010-11 figure – it smacks of a weak attempt to win some media coverage and votes in the looming general election. #upskilling #generaelection #futuretechnologies #government #futuretech #UKtech
