    Skills drive 'to boost workforce'

    Seven and a half million training places have been made available in an attempt to fulfil a government promise of "British jobs for British workers".
    The plan to upgrade the skills of England's workforce includes 3.5m basic literacy and numeracy courses.

    Overall skill levels must improve regardless of the influx of migrants, Skills Secretary John Denham said.

    But critics say the creation of such basic training classes points to a failure of the education system.

    Under the plan, which will be rolled out during the next three years, there will also be 120,000 new apprenticeships for the under-25s and 30,000 places for older workers.

    In the meantime all those foreigners who already know how to read, write and do maths get the jobs....
