Schools and Colleges

Working with our education partners enables us to determine together how we can add value to young people's learning experiences throughout their education, leaving no one behind.

How we can support your curriculum

The Bloomsbury education experience is unique. Our personalised approach will ensure barriers or challenges students may have faced in the past do not determine their future.

We aim to work effectively with our education partners, determining together how we can add value to students' learning experience, careers education and contribute practically to breaking down barriers, widening participation, and leaving no one behind.

We do this by providing both civic engagement and subject-specific workshops in Law, Accounting and Finance, Business and Management, and practical employability sessions either at an external school/college/partner location or at the Bloomsbury Institute's campuses.

Purpose-driven and committed educators are at the heart of our community. They can visit your school or college and deliver a range of interactive workshops to students in Years 12 and 13, or in Further Education Year 1 and 2. Some of our workshops are suitable for Years 9, 10 and 11 too.
