Chancellor Rishi Sunak has pledged to boost skills funding by £3bn in Wednesday’s budget, with greater investments in T-Levels and tech ‘boot camps’ for adults set to be announced. Experts have welcomed news of the additional cash, but they have also raised concerns about whether the funding is being targeted in the right areas.

Though full details of the funding will not be revealed until the budget itself, an announcement from the Treasury on Sunday stated that £1.6bn will be ringfenced to fund more T-Levels, the post-16 technology qualification launched last year, with £550m earmarked for adult skills provision and £830m to revamp and modernise colleges.
