‘Aspire, Achieve, Include’ is the 2022-2025 Post-16 Employment and Skills Plan for Kirklees. It explains how the council, working closely with partners across the borough, will support and invest in the local employment and skills system over the next three years. The plan proposes a series of new partnership-based actions, and a new Collaborative approach to oversee the delivery of those actions. It provides an agreed list of actions and priorities, the details and delivery of which will then be worked on by local stakeholders.
Engagement on the development of the plan took place with Businesses, partners and key stakeholders. Engagement took place in the form of meetings, in writing and where appropriate as groups.
