CAREERS DEVELOPMENT AND GUIDANCE NEWS DEGREE APPRENTICESHIPS Looking for a degree in Accounting, Technology or Business Management, consider a Flying Start Degree with PwC, using the links below to find out further information. https://www.pwc.co.uk/careers/student-careers/school-careers/our-programmes/flying-start-degrees.html Accounting - https://www.pwc.co.uk/careers/student-careers/school-careers/our-programmes/flying-start-degrees/ accounting.html
Technology - https://www.pwc.co.uk/careers/student-careers/school-careers/our-programmes/flying-start-degrees/ technology.html Business Management - https://www.pwc.co.uk/careers/student-careers/school-careers/our-programmes/flying-start- degrees/business-management.html ACEN is a rapidly growing network of Black Parents, Students, Professionals and Teachers. Their principal aim is to effect racial equality for Black children in education and organise to impact on Black communal equity, now and over a generation. Founded in 2019 by parents of African Caribbean children, through their own experiences and those of other Black children and parents in similar environments, they recognised that their children face a unique set of challenges, as well as opportunities, and we founded ACEN as a way to address both. Their original aim was to share resources, opportunities, teaching, and anything enabling children of African Caribbean heritage to access and move successfully through independent and grammar school systems, and carry the collective benefits of their education and network into their careers. However, these aims were interrupted by the 2020 Black Lives Matter movement, and as an organisation, they started to look at the ways in which their network could impact on institutional and structural inequality within the Black community more widely. Especially, considering the lack of Black people in senior positions across ALL industries and the interconnectedness between independent and grammar schools, Russell Group universities and Oxbridge, and decision-making positions thereafter. Their mission moved on from their own children, to engaging with independent and grammar schooling as a way to impact on inequity at an earlier, clearly identifiable stage, for as many Black children as possible. If you are a black student considering attending a university the African Caribbean Education Network (ACEN), can help you through their comprehensive database of members that are able to offer careers advise, mentoring and work experience opportunities. To take advantage of these opportunities register with the ACEN by using the following link. https://www.aceducationnetwork.com/students/ Miss G Pastore Careers Guidance and Development Advisor
