The EBacc is made up of the subjects which are considered essential to many degrees and open up lots of doors.
Research shows that a pupil’s socio-economic background impacts the subjects they choose at GCSE, and that this determines their opportunities beyond school.
A study by the UCL Institute of Education shows that studying subjects included in the EBacc provides students with greater opportunities in further education and increases the likelihood that a pupil will stay on in full-time education. Sutton Trust research reveals that studying the EBacc can help improve a young person’s performance in English and maths.
The government’s ambition is to see 75% of pupils studying the EBacc subject combination at GCSE by 2022, and 90% by 2025.

🌟 Job of the Week - Furniture Designer 🌟
Furniture designers produce designs for furniture to be sold in a variety of ways. Some designers also produce the items and often work closely with other designers and makers.
Some furniture will be designed as one-off, bespoke pieces, whilst others will be made in large quantities. Some people take an apprenticeship or traineeship into becoming a designer.
