Read by the Lord Bishop of Oxford. We cannot be precise about how many enter the catering industry.
Some colleges already collect substantial amounts of student destination data.
We should like to see all colleges publish such data, and we announced in the recent White Paper Learning to Compete, proposals for an additional college performance indicator on student destinations. My Lords, I thank my noble friend the Minister for his reply. There is enormous concern within the catering industry at present that the colleges are training the wrong people in the wrong way, and that those people are not entering the catering industry at the end of their courses. Indeed, too many students are not completing their courses at all. My Lords, I am grateful for my noble friend's response.
