The Bridge London Secondary Careers Programme

All students access accredited work related learning and employability skills delivered both on and off-site by Bridge School staff and external partners. Sixth form students have opportunities for ‘real world’ work experience in a range of charities and other organisations depending on ability and level of independence.

Destinations of 2021 leavers:

• 1 student – Area 51 Education
• 4 students – Barnet and Southgate College
• 1 student – Alexandra Centre
• 1 student – New City College
• 1 student – B Six

Qualifications gained by 2021 leavers:

• 8 students – ASDAN Personal Progress Award

Information is shared with parents at parents evenings, Annual Reviews, coffee mornings and transition workshops. Teachers are able to access training on accreditation pathways such as ASDAN, AQA and OCR during staff training and external CPD. We develop links with local employers who are able to visit the school to meet staff and students and then offer a bespoke work experience programme where appropriate. Previous placements include a local charity shop and Islington Council and we hope to continue with these and other placements when it is considered safe to do so.
