We have a number of well-established partnerships to enable students to inspire and inform our students. The Peter Jones Academy offers students the chance to develop their business ideas into reality. The University of Sussex chose us as one of their partner schools and students visit from each year group have had the chance to visit, taste University life and enjoy workshops in different subjects. The Brokerage, Urban Synergy, Amazing Apprenticeships and the Association for BAME Engineers all provide opportunities for our students to visit professional work places and we work with a network of local employers to provide assemblies and one to one support.
