- Our Activities
All our work-related activities increase students’ knowledge and understanding of the world of work in a practical and informative way, and are supported by Business Ambassadors.
Each activity is mapped against the QCA Framework for Work Related Learning (including Enterprise Strands) and has been designed to meet curricular needs, as well as provide an interactive, business focused and inspiring experience for participants. With a range of programmes to suit different abilities and ages, we work with whole year groups at a time:
- All activities promote team-working and problem solving in a work-related context
- Any product can be tailored to meet your individual needs
- We are experienced in working with all levels of behaviour and ability
- All programmes are evaluated, and feedback is provided to the school
- Student certificates are included in most student programmes
