Schools and Colleges

Introduce the world of work to your students.


Giving young people a taste of life outside the classroom really helps them develop the kind of skills they will use in life and work… It is all about opening up as many avenues and opportunities for young people as possible.

Employability workshops 

Our free half-day workshops are for young people eligible for free school meals. They are ideal for students in Year 7 - 11 (P7 - S4 in Scotland), giving them a great start on their journey to become work ready. 

During our sessions, students will hear inspiring career stories from various professionals, take part in a team challenge and work on their presentation skills.

The workshops:

  • Introduce students to transferable employability skills
  • Build awareness of different careers, job options and pathways, including apprenticeships
  • Provide insights into what employers are looking for
  • Connect students with prospective employers

AMAZING. Wish it existed a million years ago when I was 15.
