The Consortium delivers a wide range of projects across the primary, secondary and post-16 phases of education.
Businesses:
By engaging with us, local businesses raise the profile of their sector, as well as raising the skills levels of the local community. The projects that businesses get involved in also help to motivate their own staff and support vital professional development. Skills such as team building, communication and problem solving are at the heart of many of the activities we deliver.

Schools and colleges:
Schools and colleges work with us across all areas of the curriculum to develop business links that enhance teaching and put learning into context. These types of activities are called work related learning: learning through work, about work and for work. They are designed to increase the skills and abilities of the future work force and to develop the full potential of all young people.
In secondary schools our programmes support the nine elements of the QCDA Work Related Learning framework for Key Stage 4 and map against Every Child Matters.
