Introducing students to the world of work is a pivotal step in their educational journey. The transition from classrooms to careers is a crucial phase that schools are tasked with preparing young individuals for. However, astonishingly, over 42% of schools do not offer work experience programmes, leaving a significant void in equipping students with the essential skills and insights required for future success. Historically, work experience programmes have come with heavy administrative burdens. In response to these obstacles, Changing Education Group has embarked on a mission to change this statistic by offering schools an all-encompassing solution – the Work Experience Suite.
A Simplified Approach
The recently launched Work Experience Suite has been designed to provide schools with the tools to manage students and employers in a single location with ease. With everything needed to track student progress and consent in one place, you can run programmes simpler, safer, and more effectively.
Bridging the Gap with Morrisby
In a strategic partnership with Morrisby, the UK’s leading careers platform, Changing Education Group has developed an integrated solution that bridges the gap between career development and work experience opportunities. This partnership combines 65 years of expertise in the education sector to
offer schools and colleges a unique, fully integrated solution.
Streamlining Work Experience
One of the standout features of the Work Experience Suite is its ability to simplify the management of work experience programmes for educators. This suite streamlines the process of tracking all employer contact and risk assessments, reducing the administrative burden associated with ensuring students have all the right information about their placement through their app and portal, without completing endless paperwork. All of these challenges can consume precious time, which can be better spent engaging with students.
Real-time Student Engagement Tracking
The Work Experience Suite is not just about simplifying administrative tasks;
it also empowers educators with real-time insights into how students are
engaging with their work experience. This feature allows educators to monitor students’ progress and participation, ensuring they make the most of their work experience opportunities. With real-time tracking, educators can identify areas where students need additional support and guidance.
