London’s success depends on its ability to develop, attract and retain talented people. Londoners of all ages need a world class education and skills system if they are to prosper in a fast-changing economy. This programme explores the ways in which London’s labour market is evolving; how the city can best secure the talent that it needs; and how we can ensure that every Londoner can make the most of the opportunities the city offers.
