Get involved
Work-related learning has enormous benefits for young people and employers, helping young people gain the right knowledge and skills for the workplace and think constructively about what they want to do after they leave education.
In return, employers who get involved in work-related learning can expect to improve young people’s employability, renew links with the community around them, and have more motivated, happier staff.
Despite all these advantages, employers are busy and it’s sometimes difficult to find the time to work with schools and colleges. Business in Schools is here to make engagement with education fast and simple. In a few quick steps, an employer can browse different activities to decide which is right for them before finding and contacting a local school, college or intermediary. And schools and colleges no longer have to struggle to find employers willing to help them fulfil work-related learning requirements.
We’re all working towards the same thing – confident, capable young people and a strong, skills-based economy – so let’s work together.
