The aim of the EBP is to enable education and business to work together for mutual benefit. The EBP strives to link young people with the world of work so that they know more about working life, learn more effectively and adapt well to employment.

The EBP is involved with many interesting and diverse initiatives aimed at enhancing work related learning and improving standards generally, including numeracy, literacy, environmental, scientific and technical projects involving many businesses in the locality, work experience for students, teacher placements, enhancing GNVQ's, supporting diplomas, the list is almost endless.

All education establishments within the boundaries of South East Oxfordshire are included in the education side of the EBP. All businesses are welcome to become involved in the work of the EBP.

What we do

The fruits of the partnership over the past few years have included mentoring of secondary school pupils as well as diverse work experience opportunities, the loaning of equipment, facilities and buildings , sharing of technical help especially in ICT, support of curriculum projects including reading buddies, development of middle management training, creation of performing arts projects, joining together of adults from businesses and pupils for musical activities and mutual support when bidding for funding. We are always looking for volunteers.
