Vocational education as a field of activity and inquiry Gareth Parry University of Sheffield

Vocational majorities ‘Most English young people now take some vocational courses before they are 16; and post- 16 the majority follow courses which are largely or entirely vocational’ ‘English vocational education is extraordinarily complex and opaque’ (Wolf Report 2011)

VE as a field of activity need for a ‘common language’ ‘secret garden’ of higher vocational education national VET centre: ‘practice to theory’ and ‘using problems that have arisen in the workplace to set the research agenda’

VE as a field of inquiry ‘a research centre which will, for the first time, bring analytical and experimental capacity together to improve vocational education’ state of the art analysis of linked datasets experimentation and testing of effectiveness active engagement with partners

Couplings? young people and adults general and vocationally specific into and within work public and private provision economic and wider benefits basic, intermediate and higher

Expectations? independence, with steers and commissions comprehensiveness: scope and scale simplification: a high-order exercise evidence base: for theory, policy and practice
