What makes us different?

With so many school career programmes to choose between, it can be difficult to decide who to partner with. Here’s what you can expect from working with us.

Creating potential

We focus solely on students from disadvantaged backgrounds. With school funding at an all-time low – especially in deprived areas – proactive employer support can make an incredible difference in the opportunities for these young people.
