Brighter Futures with Education Development Trust

Creating pathways for young people to bring career aspirations to life is an essential part of their educational journey, and one in which we’re seeing a positive shift.

Join us on Brighter Futures this week where we look at the growing initiatives around young people’s pathways with The Careers & Enterprise Company’s Oli de Botton, and Education Development Trust’s Mark De Backer & Wendy Phillips.

We hear their fascinating insight on careers education, from NEET-preventative measures to connecting with industry professionals and embedding careers education throughout the school journey.

This episode covers

• How The Careers & Enterprise Company’s endeavours link into Education Development Trust’s goals
• Increasing the information available for young people to make good, well-informed decisions
• Complexities of linking schools with employers in rural areas
• The remarkable value of preemptively preventing students from falling through the net through Pre-NEET initiatives
• Tailored approaches to support for more disadvantaged groups
