Come and join us for breakfast and then to find out more about Northern Futures and how you can become involved in this exciting new initiative.
What is Northern Futures? Northern Futures is a University Technical College which is an employer-led school for children aged 14 to 18 years old.
In addition to teaching the standard curriculum, Northern Futures will specialise in IT/Digital and Health/Life Sciences, with the aim of giving students a headstart in preparing for a career with some of the most important companies and organisations in the world.
What is so Special about Northern Futures? Northern Futures will have direct, everyday involvement from committed locally based employers such as your organisation, to include well-known multinational organisations. Employers will work with Northern Futures to set an appropriate curriculum and lead exciting projects which allow students to put what they are learning into practice. Northern Futures believes that this is the best way to learn.
