Schools and Colleges
Apprenticeships are an exciting new route into higher learning and earning for your students.
Role of schools and colleges
Schools are currently facing huge changes in curriculum and new increased responsibility for students’ progression.
OFSTED recommends that: ‘In every school the vocational route, including apprenticeships is given an equal status to the academic route’.
Services for schools and colleges
We have developed a range of services to enable schools and colleges to meet their statutory requirements and further develop good practice.
Tower Hamlets Careers Service has a dedicated team that provides:
- support for school leadership team
- a monthly apprenticeship bulletin with all apprenticeship vacancies in the travel to work area, accessed through a dedicated careers adviser for every school in the borough.
Tower Hamlets Council provides apprenticeship INSET sessions for teachers and further information that will help students interested on apprenticeships.
