...in education and training

Work in this area includes:

Harlow Employer Education Partnership
The BAA Communities Trust gave £50,000 to the Harlow Employer Education Partnership to set up a web-based work placement scheme so students can sample a variety of the different employment areas at Stansted Airport.

Science festival support
A £1,000 donation was provided by the BAA Communities Trust to support a science festival in West Bergholt School, Colchester. As well as increasing aptitude in science, the festival aims to increase enjoyment and enthusiasm for the subject among participants, encouraging more students to take science courses when they have completed their GCSEs.

'Take Off & Learn'
Our dedicated educational website is 'Take Off & Learn' (www.baa.com/learn). Educational activities, notes for teachers and information on vocational skills can all be found on the website.
