efining our area by numbers may be a blunt instrument but as exercises go, it’s undeniably

between schools and the outside world. Potential employers and entrepreneurs, academics and alternative thinkers, all are narrowing the gap between their worlds and our children’s – by visiting schools, sharing their expertise and inspiring this generation of pupils by outlining a vision for the future and the role they might play in shaping it. It’s inspiring stuff. Curriculums are now being personalised so every child moves to the next stage of their lives with skills and experience that will equip them to realise their individual potential, whether that involves mass leadership or small-scale inspiration. Add the ways that schools are enriching the education experience so exam grades are merely a starting point, and it’s no surprise our schools are a smash hit with parents, pupils and the wider community. No surprise at all, given they’re incubating the minds of the future – something that will ultimately benefit everybody.

impressive. Take our top 100 employers – not just big names, but world-beating ones, too. And they’re continuing to grow fast. Not only are they bouncing back from Covid-19 but, in many cases, doing better now than before the pandemic. You’ll find established businesses and start-ups, some from industries whose roots go back decades or longer, others whose creativity will transform the future. All rely on highly trained people with an ability to think differently and innovate. Pupils attending our area’s schools – the workforce of the future – don’t yet learn by osmosis, but you can’t help feeling that with all that brainpower being unleashed daily in offices, labs and creative spaces, there has to be a certain electricity in the air. It can really feel like it, especially given the connections that are increasingly being forged
