LVN IN SCHOOLS
We introduce your students to volunteers from industry, helping you to hit your Gatsby Benchmark targets and re-engage your students with their education.
Our flagship mentoring programme, Amplify Me, is run in schools and colleges across London for students in years 10 and 12. Amplify Me is a 6-week programme of weekly hour-long sessions for groups of 20-25 students. Sessions are delivered in the classroom and facilitated by an LVN member of staff.
The objective of the programme is to improve confidence, increase know-how, inspire aspiration, and build networking skills. This is a free programme in which students meet 10 working professionals from outside their usual sphere of influence.
Benefits to schools
- LVN programmes meet many of the criteria in the Gatsby Benchmarks and can form a part of your career services offering.
- Many schools place us within their curriculum timetables, but if need be we can do lunchtime sessions.
TESTIMONIALS
"I always thought that I wouldn't fit in the jobs that I really want, but through this course, I learned that there are so many jobs out there that are for me, and that networking can help you get the job you like."
"I have noticed improved behaviour of the students who have taken part in the programme. Especially better time keeping and attendance, as well as improved behaviour in the playground, which results in fewer interventions."
"I noticed a massive change in attitude, confidence and behaviour of our students from the 1st week of the programme to the final week. We would love to do this again in the next academic year for our next cohort of students."
