employability solutions
Huddersfield
Employability Solutions is a registered Independent School offering an
alternative secondary education for young people who thrive in a smaller, more
nurturing setting than mainstream schools. At ES we believe one size does not
fit all. Our curriculum is underpinned by a desire to enable all students to
develop their personal, social, academic and employability skills to a level
which enables them to lead meaningful, independent and happy lives. All our
education programmes are flexible, individually tailored and give young people
the opportunity to explore a range of vocational pathways which sets them up for
their future. We want to inspire a generation of happy, healthy, employable
young people with equal access to opportunities in education as well as at home,
work, in their community and in life. What we do We transform young lives and
build resilient communities through unique education and employability
programmes that are individually developed to meet the needs of each and every
student we care for. We do this by offering accredited training, personal
guidance, support and access to a wider curriculum of enrichment activities as
well as robust safeguarding measures to ensure we have a generation of happy,
healthy, resilient young people. In the last few years, and in partnership with
other local entrepreneurs we have successfully launched vibrant, sustainable
enterprise hubs managed by our students for the benefit of our community. See
‘Projects’ for more information. Why we do it We are fiercely passionate about
what we do and committed to creating safer, vibrant communities and pathways out
of poverty. We love and care for the young people of our community, and feel
it’s our duty to nurture and support them when they face significant barriers to
learning and work. Many of our students have gone on to apprenticeships,
employment and even university after accessing an education that was the right
‘fit’ for them. Giving back… Every penny of our profits is reinvested in the
interest of improving our student’s health and wellbeing. We provide our
students with healthy nutritious meals, travel costs, enrichment activities and
PHSE support. Throughout it all we strive to enrich our community with the
services and skills our students learn along the way. We generate local jobs for
local people.
