As a part of a team of engineers he is responsible for keeping the RNLI's fleet of boats up and running.This is the first of a pair of programmes following people employed in the engineering industry throughout their working day to reveal the Level 2 literacy, numeracy and ICT skills they need to use. Together with the accompanying web site, www.teachers.tv/skillforlife, which features a range of linked interactive tasks, the FE: Skills for Life in Context series is designed to help 14-19 year old students on vocational courses with their literacy, numeracy and ICT skills.
