The IT skills of 26 students from East London schools taking part in the e-skills4industry pilot training scheme have been praised by the firms where they recently completed work placements. They included HSBC, Morgan Stanley, News International (publisher of The TES) and Deloitte amp; Touche. The scheme gives students with a flair for IT but, not necessarily the academic qualifications, a head start in getting their first job.
