Careers, Enterprise and Raising Aspirations

As part of the Winsford Education Partnership, we work together to try to tackle disadvantage, raise aspirations and improve the social mobility of children in our town. Our aim is to increase the awareness and teaching of Careers and Enterprise in our schools by providing opportunities for children and young people to access high quality learning and training.

At Winsford High Street Community Primary School, we help children to develop skills and resilience to successfully transition into further education, employment and contribute to the economy. Each year group embeds Careers and Enterprise into the curriculum through the explorations of careers within lessons, talks from guest speakers and links on educational visits. Our regular World of Work evenings further demonstrate the teaching of Careers and Enterprise through mini-projects where children are able to work on improving their teamwork, decision making and communicative skills along with developing their confidence and self-esteem.
