School Business Partnership
‘Unlock Education-Industry Synergy: Join Our Initiative to Inspire the Next Generation of creatives, Innovators and Problem Solvers!’
Desired outcomes
Schools want their curriculum offer to have real context and meaning. This creates more profound levels of student engagement, which, in turn, produces better learning and progress.
Business and industry need young people who are problem solvers, creative thinkers, and team players capable of taking initiative when required. They also need young people who have developed the resilience to ‘stick’ to a task when others have long since given up.
Our Solution
For a yearly cost of only £998 +VAT, we will connect your business to one school (primary or secondary). The objective is to build a curriculum connection that will last. One where your business experience and expertise can help inspire and inform the workforce of the future.
For a yearly cost of only £1,298 +VAT, we can do the above and will provide £300 directly to the school to enable curriculum work to be successfully launched and embedded.
How it works
We talk with you to identify how much (or how little) time you and your staff realistically have to spend on this connection. We identify the skills and expertise that you possess and that schools desperately need. We then talk to schools and match you with a school that is excited by what you are willing to offer.
But we don’t stop there! We help you set the initiative up and then stick with it, allowing you to build a body of work with the school that will benefit students for years to come.
We are seeking the first twenty business partners to help us create case studies that will promote the success of this campaign to others nationally.
