NTLT receive funding to develop careers resource

North Tyneside Learning Trust are excited to announce that they have been successful in their bid to create careers resources with The Careers and Enterprise Company (CEC).

The CEC has been seeking fund activity proposals from Trusts to support the development of resources and sharing of best practice in respect of four key areas of strategic priority and North Tyneside Learning Trust are delighted to have been successful in receiving funding to develop a set of resources for Careers Leaders and schools nationally to support amplification of Technical and Vocational routes for pupils who attend a SEND, PRU or alternative provision and also to support parental engagement.

We are really pleased to be working in collaboration with 4 of our schools on this project: Silverdale, and Southlands Schools are heavily involved in the development of these resources along with Barnados and Newcastle UXL. Burnside College and Longbenton High School will also be involved in the testing and roll out.

There will initially be four sets of resources focussed on the four growth sectors within the North East and we are thrilled to have the following companies involved:

Digital – Accenture

Energy – A & P Group

Health & Life Sciences – NHS

Manufacturing – Unipres

Angie Patterson, our World of Work Project Lead will be leading on this exciting and innovative work. If you would like more information about this project, please email angie.patterson@ntlearningtrust.org.uk
