"At Education Works we offer young people the opportunity to discover and develop; empowering them with the skills and competencies needed to secure the education, training and careers they aspire for and to thrive in their chosen pathways."

Business Action Groups for Schools

It has been another busy term for the BAGS team with exciting new projects such as the Zurich Financial Literacy Cross School Competition. The team continue to deliver events designed to inspire young people including the Willowfield Humanities College Careers Junction.

Career Capital

Our Career Capital programme had a great start to the year having piloted our very first Mock Assessment Centre Practice, structured Legal Mentoring and wrapped up its core programmes including the very popular 'remote' CV Surgery, Mock Interviews, Mentoring and Insight Clubs.

Mentoring Works

The Mentoring Works programme celebrates its 20th anniversary this year and the team were thrilled to be approved for accreditation from the Mentoring and Befriending Foundation (MBF). The 2015/16 Year 10 programme concluded with our annual recognition events in June and Year 12 students will continue their mentoring relationships over the summer period concluding in November.
