Our provision is a re-engagement programme offering a work placement opportunity to gain and develop new skills.
The provision is tailored to the young person, taking account of appropriate background information, and responds to individual needs in order to create a bespoke pathway back to education.
The focus is on the young person's needs or aspirations for their future, in order to prepare them for adult life.
We work with students from various backgrounds from years 9 to 11 who have a range of personal or behavioural issues. GM Training and the employer work with the young person to develop their social and emotional capabilities, supporting students in the work placement and encouraging them to re-engage with education. Not all students are academic and it is known that some will perform better in a workplace environment, giving them their opportunity to shine.
