Workplace visits

Schools and Local Authorities

Our facilitated workplace visits to local employers provide engaging, interactive and inspirational experiences for students. Employers open their doors to show our young people how their business works. This can be an unforgettable experience and spur students on in their studies.

How they work

We work in partnership with schools to arrange a facilitated visit to a local employer for a group of young people and a member of the school staff. Students will get the opportunity to tour a workplace, see what really goes on in the world of work, and learn from the experience, behaviour, and attitude of the employees.

Lasting 1-2 hours, visits usually start with a tour of the workplace followed by a workshop or talk. In these workshops, students learn about the employer, their business, as well as their career opportunities.

Given the current situation we are looking at how best we can deliver workplace visits digitally.
