Over the last few years Crelos has been involved in two national government funded programmes designed to support both pupils and teachers. We were the main supplier of Progression Skills Academies, designing and delivering workshops as part of the CITY GATES, City Challenge programme. More recently we have been delivering day long workshops for teachers, mentors and educators, developing them to deliver Progression Skills Modules.
Why choose Crelos?
What are Progression Skills?
Progression Skills, based on the successful Progression Academies, delivered through City GATES, aims to support pupils through a personalised learning journey so they can plan for an ambitious future and have the interpersonal skills to perform to their potential at school, further education and in their chosen career. Progression Skills include:
Year 9/10 - Personal Brand, Setting Objectives, Understanding Self, Communication
Year 10/11 - Working in Teams, Working with Others, Problem solving and Creative Thinking
In 2009/2010 4,000 learners across London, Manchester and the Midlands participated in a Crelos lead Progression Academy workshop. 96% of all attendees said they thought it was a worthwhile event and 93% would recommend it to a friend.
Learners have had this to say after attending a Progression Academy workshop:
“(What I liked most was..) understanding myself better, learning a lot about my personality and why I think the way I do.”
“It helps you to decide what you want in the future, it helps you decide how to plan for the goals that you wish to achieve.”
“I feel more motivated and better set on what I want.”
