School students

LEAP has developed an educational programme for young people in London as they prepare to go out on work experience in year 10 (and above if relevant). The course exposes them to skills, behaviours and attitudes needed to succeed in the work environment and life in general.

The training is offered to those schools that have a large number of pupils from ethnic minorities or from more disadvantaged families, as all the statistics show that such pupils are less likely to fare well in the labour market.

Through the delivery of this course, we aim to further enhance the learner’s key skills, self-development and aid their understanding of the world of work.
