Equality and Diversity - Department for Education

The Department for Education is responsible for education, children's social services, higher and further education policy, apprenticeships and wider skills in England.

We work to achieve a highly educated society in which opportunity is equal for all, no matter your background or family circumstances.

Creating a world-class technical education system is one of the Government's key commitments.

The Professional and Technical Education directorate (PTE) is responsible for the development and delivery of the Government's plans for technical education reforms.

This includes highly ambitious changes to the technical education system, with the introduction of a new framework of technical routes, and qualifications (T Levels) based on employer-designed standards, streamlining of the existing 12,000 qualifications available to 16-19 year olds, and reforming Higher Technical Qualifications.

We are offering an exciting opportunity to be at the centre of delivery of these Technical Education Reforms.

The Corporate team provides oversight and advice across the PTE directorate, delivering a range of services and support on HR and resource management, ministerial business, and financial management.
