Employer engagement

Developed by Shoreham Academy.

A set of resources designed to support both educators and employers to reimagine students’ experiences of the workplace. Containing practical guides and templates which can provide inspiration for a range of meaningful project-based activities. 

You can also find a link below to our ‘Future Workplace’ webinar which highlighted these resources as part of a wider session looking at the implications (for educators and employers) of the post pandemic workplace.

Since 2017, the 12 Opportunity Areas have been working with local people to improve school standards, attendance, teaching quality and recruitment, careers training and advice, and literacy and maths skills in some of the most disadvantaged regions in the country, alongside tackling barriers to learning that exist beyond the school gates. 

This is the first insight guide focused on providing careers advice and support for young people and sharing what has worked in the Opportunity Areas so that other areas can benefit from this insight.

This guide is for school leaders and careers leaders to support preparation for the Education Inspection Framework (2019).  The guide also provides Enterprise Advisers and Governors with key questions to support strategic careers planning.

Developed by Young Money (part of Young Enterprise) this resource aims to support the planning, teaching, and progression of financial education by setting out the key areas of financial knowledge, skills and attitudes, across core themes. 

Financial education is an essential element of the delivery of a broad and balanced curriculum, helping pupils prepare for the opportunities, responsibilities and experiences of later life.  This guidance, published by the Money and Pensions Service, aims to help schools deliver quality financial education to their pupils and students.

These resources have been developed by RICS - Nationwide. They provide opportunities for students to learn about the myriad roles within the surveying sector. They encourage students to think about the day-to-day of a surveyor and the requisite skills. They also encourage students to think about their own current skills and how they might develop these to pursue a role in surveying. Pathways to becoming a surveyor are shared.
