Moves to fill thousands of IT vacancies

Moves to fill thousands of IT vacancies :

"About a quarter of British businesses say that they suffer from a lack of proficiency in everyday IT skills. In effect, this is the equivalent of saying that their people lack basic skills because that is how important IT is in today’s working world."

So, Britain has a lack of IT skills as well. So what happened to all these terribly clever kids with IT capacities to make you envious??? They should be in the work force by now making it go at lightning speed. Their skills are limited and very self serving. They are often rather destructive too. We have also arrogantly assumed men are better than women and boys are better than girls. They have an affinity for technology. They zap and push buttons in a twink of an eye, but they are not ones to sit and learn programmes. Whizz around the Net click , click, click. Lizards skittering along the top of grass. Slow them down and teach them. Look to others as well because you actually haven't noticed they have skills because of your narrow view of what makes someone "good" with technology. It's about attitde.
