The UK is facing a growing skills shortage across defence, aviation and aerospace, just as demand is increasing. Employers warn the talent pipeline isn’t keeping pace, particularly in key STEM roles like engineering. Part of Lincoln College Group, the Air & Space Institute is a specialist further education provider focused on aviation, aerospace and space, offering hands-on training using facilities such as an Airbus A320neo, flight simulators and engineering workshops. Joining Rory McGowan to discuss this is Julie Sullivan, the Vice Principal for Curriculum, Apprenticeships and Operations at Lincoln College Group, alongside Hazel Bunting, a student from the Air & Space Institute.

Rory McGowan is joined by Michael Follett, Founder & Director of OPAL and an International Play Consultant. They've found some new research that shows widespread support from the public for UK schools to change their policies and adopt an always active uniform. The Alliance, founded by Outdoor Play and Learning, the Youth Sport Trust, Play England, and the Centre for Young Lives claims traditional uniforms restrict movement, limit opportunities for active play, and don’t reflect the needs of modern learning environments. https://outdoorplayandlearning.org.uk/
