Earnings … and increased earnings for young people. Equity The life chances created by the new system are available to all and lead to increased social mobility.

Discussion: Why is it difficult? For schools…? For employers…?

Brokerage is essential Education and employer links don’t just happen. They require prolonged effort. It is difficult for schools to manage employer liaison directly. The existence of a brokerage agency, brokerage professionals and a brokerage system are therefore critical.

Understand what is in it for employers Employers motivations Solving skills shortages Recruiting the right people Developing the workforce Growing a responsible brand

Understand what is in it for schools Schools have a statutory duty to provide career guidance. This covers the provision of employer interactions. Ofsted are attending to school’s careers and enterprise provision more than in the past. Parents are also enthusiastic about careers and enterprise provision. Good careers and enterprise provision supports many of the core objectives of schools: attainment; school engagement and progression.

Get in for the long haul Good relationships between schools and employers aren’t made over night. Building long lasting relationships is more important than achieving flashy ‘quick fix’ interactions. If in doubt think ‘how can I make sure that these people are still speaking in three years time?’

What can you do more effectively? How can you make interactions a good experience for everyone?
