Homebuilders Federation advocates need for early training and a stronger National Curriculum for entry to the Building Industry if we are ever to build the homes that we need.
The case for our Building School proposal gets stronger by the day. More homes are desperately needed and we will need ever more trained tradespeople to build them. We need to train talented young people to enter a rewarding career in the Building Industry and this should start whilst they are at school. Many years ago this was a popular concept with the country struggling to recover from extensive war damage. Skills were in short supply. as many skilled tradespeople had volunteered to serve their country but sadly did not return.
We need all the support we can get to help realise the new school, and to give teachers purpose built premises in which to help schoolchildren realise their innate potential to develop new skills, gain qualifications and present attractive propositions to employers.
