We're delighted that you're thinking of volunteering with us!
We proactively seek to build relationships with our partners as we plan our careers activity throughout the school year. Providers have multiple opportunities to speak to students and their parents across years 7-11 and to offer information on vocational, technical and apprenticeship qualifications and pathways. We ensure that all Academy staff involved in careers guidance and pastoral support have up-to-date training and knowledge of post 16 and post 18 pathways, so they are well placed to support students in discussions of their future.
This page has details of all the volunteering opportunities available; if you'd like to get involved with any, please contact us.
All volunteers will receive a full briefing session.
You can see further details of our careers programme here.
Career Insight Talks
We offer a programme of Career Insight Talks to provide our pupils with valuable insight into career sectors to inform their next steps. We typically look for volunteers who can deliver a short talk about their career journey and answer questions about their role.
Work Experience Opportunities
We look to provide our students with exposure to top employers through work experience opportunities.
We typically look for volunteers who can provide an insight into their business and role through in person visits and work placements. These can vary in length from half day visits to 2-week placements.
CV Workshops
We run CV workshops to educate students on how to write a high-quality CV.
We typically need volunteers to give up 30-minutes of their time to review a student CV, offer feedback and ask them questions to prepare them for the world of work.
