Employer Engagement

Employer Engagement 

We know that employers in the UK have concerns about skills gaps and the work-readiness of some young people.  Sir Christopher Hatton is a member of the SEMLEP Careers and Enterprise Network, part of the national Careers and Enterprise Company programme. 

Our aim is that through employer engagement at all ages, we ensure that young people leave our school with the skills, competencies, knowledge, appropriate qualifications and attitudes needed by employers for both their own career development and economic sustainability and growth.
