"Raspberry Pi Foundation backs Burnham's Baccalaureate mission" GMCA, Greater Manchester Business Board (LEP) and the Raspberry Pi Foundation have teamed up to design an applied computing qualification, offered to young people through the Greater Manchester Baccalaureate - known as the MBacc. Read more in BusinessCloud 👇
Greater Manchester Mayor Andy Burnham’s plans to overhaul the education system with a new MBacc qualification have received a major boost. The Greater Manchester Business Board (LEP) and the Greater Manchester Combined Authority (GMCA) have teamed up with the Raspberry Pi Foundation to design a first-of-its-kind Applied Computing qualification, which will be made available to secondary school pupils through the Greater Manchester Baccalaureate – known as the MBacc. The MBacc is Greater Manchester’s plan to transform technical education across the city-region. Co-designed by education leaders, employers and businesses, the MBacc will provide young people with a clear pathway from school to high-quality jobs in Greater Manchester’s growing economy. The new qualification will help young people who don’t take the traditional academic route to develop the knowledge, skills and confidence to thrive in one of the city-region’s fastest-growing sectors. Burnham said: “Our digital and technology sector is one of Greater Manchester’s biggest strengths and is rapidly growing. To sustain that growth, we need to ensure there is a clear pathway to a career in the sector for any young person who has that ambition.” Chair of the Greater Manchester Business Board, Lou Cordwell OBE, said: “This qualification is another example of public and private sectors partnering with each other for mutual benefit – the type of collaboration that has become one of Greater Manchester’s distinctive strengths. “We hope this is the first of many digital qualifications that we can deliver alongside the private sector to show Greater Manchester is leading the way when it comes to technical education.” Chief Executive of the Raspberry Pi Foundation, Philip Colligan, said: “This qualification will give all young people in Manchester, including those who may not be in formal education, the chance to develop the skills and confidence to pursue a career in tech.” https://lnkd.in/ebF4nHNY
