⭐ ⭐ Let's talk about Work Experience for SEND students ⭐ ⭐ It is often a struggle for SEND students to gain meaningful work experience. According to ‘Preparing for Adulthood,’ the employment rate for disabled people stands at 45.7% against an overall employment rate of 78%, yet only 6% of people with a learning disability are in work. This makes them the most excluded group from the workforce, despite over 68% of people stating that they want to work.' Elevate Education Business Partnership is looking for employers in the Liverpool, Huyton, Prescot, Knowsley, Whiston, and Halewood areas willing to offer a five-day placement in 2025 to allow Y12 and Y13 SEND students to broaden their understanding of the world of work. Not only will this placement provide great insight for the student, but it will allow you, the employer, to meet with diverse, young, and talented students with fresh ideas that could improve business development. If you want to get involved, drop me a DM, email linda.martin@elevate-ebp.co.uk, or phone 0151 330 5758. #PayItForward #GetInvolved #SEND #LCR #opportunitiesForAll #WorkExperience #Diversity

The Importance of Employer Outreach Programs for High School and Community College Students In today’s rapidly evolving job market, employers face the challenge of finding skilled and motivated employees to meet their needs. One effective strategy to address this challenge is to create outreach programs that engage high school and community college students. These programs not only benefit employers but also provide significant advantages to students and the broader community.

I've spoken to quite a few parents/carers recently who have voiced concerns about their child dropping out. "They're dropping out of college, what do I do?" "The course isn't right for them" "They don't enjoy it" As a parent/carer, it can be difficult to know how to navigate these conversations without pushing your child further, or know what kind of support can be put in place. At Youth Employment UK, we've got advice and guidance for parents/carers on how to have these conversations, offer support, and help your child know that there are further opportunities out there. The key is to remain non-judgemental and encouraging - there are always going to be alternative paths for your child to take.
