Question to the Department for Education:
To ask the Secretary of State for Education, how many times she has met with representatives from the Institute for Apprenticeships and Technical Education in the last 12 months.
My right hon. Friend, the Secretary of State for Education, met with Institute for Apprenticeships and Technical Education (IfATE) representatives seven times in the past 12 months.
Ministers and senior officials regularly meet with IfATE, as a key delivery partner of the department, to discuss priorities and progress against them.
