We are part of a national network and work in partnership with business and the wider community to support the raising of achievement and the development of personal, social and vocational skills for young people. EBPs with their partners, aim to broaden young people's experience of the world of work as well as raising standards, motivation and aspirations. This is achieved through a wide range of programmes which include involving businesses and community organisations in supporting enterprise programmes, acting as mentors or business advisers, providing work experience, visits to business for students and teachers or contributing to the development and delivery of the curriculum at both a strategic and practical level. Why not be part of something really big, which is making a real difference for young people 5-25 years old.
