Inspire the Next Generation

At Ellis Guilford School, we welcome opportunities to work with employers, colleges, universities, apprenticeship providers and training organisations to help inspire and support the next generation.

Through meaningful engagement with professionals and education providers, children gain valuable insight into future education, training and employment pathways. These experiences help broaden horizons, raise aspirations and support children in making informed decisions about their futures.

We believe these partnerships are mutually beneficial, allowing organisations to inspire young people, strengthen community links and help shape the future workforce.

There are many ways that employers, education providers and training organisations can work with Ellis Guilford School, including:

• Delivering assemblies, talks and presentations

• Supporting mock interviews and CV reviews
• Delivering employability skills sessions
