Statement of Intent
Landau Forte Academy Tamworth Sixth Form has every reason to be pleased with its links with employers and local organisations. We pride ourselves in offering a comprehensive package of support for every student in supporting skill development, via Student Employment and Volunteering; work experience and work-related learning, because we firmly believe that such practices will prepare our learners for greater success in their lives beyond the Academy.
We want our learners to be outstanding team players; highly proficient in working independently and with responsibility; reflective on the aspects of working that they are competent in and need to develop further, as well as creative in problem-solving.
Further Progress
To continue to understand the local employment trends for our students, all students are asked to complete the Student Employment and Volunteering Survey on an annual basis. This data provides us the ability to track how our students are impacting the local employment needs, and whether their experience of employment or volunteering impacts their future career decisions and pathways.
Finally, Landau Forte would like to say a big thank you to all the employers and organisations who have engaged students in Employment and Volunteering opportunities. Listed below are some examples of these activities where students have indicated having gained positively from their experience:
