The Confederation of British Industry (CBI) has urged the government to do more to promote careers in science and technology. According to the group, there is a growing shortage of graduates entering the sector, a development which it expects to worsen in the next ten years. The CBI has proposed a plan which includes selecting brighter students for the more difficult courses and offering financial incentives. Richard Lambert, the CBI's director-general, said the value of science and technology careers should be highlighted in schools. "We need to create an environment in schools that reflects the importance of science and the value of studying it," Lambert said. "Young people are doing better than ever in science tests at 14, but hardly any are going on to study triple science GCSE, despite the opportunities and learning it offers." He added employers "have the responsibility to engage young people and show them a variety of career possibilities."
