How we work with schools

When your school signs up to work with JET, you will be assigned a JET Youth Liaison Officer who will become your main point of contact and will supervise the delivery of JET sessions to your students. We offer three delivery routes for schools:

Blue Skies: This is our intensive, flagship programme. It is delivered as a three-year syllabus to a cohort of 10-15 eligible students with a sustained focus on building confidence and aspiration, and developing teamwork, leadership, communication and resilience.

Blue Skies Inspire Packages (BSIP): Our BSIPs are a bespoke series of sessions which we tailor to the specific learning objectives and needs of the school /students. Our BSIPs are delivered to a small cohort of 10-15 students.

Inspirational Outreach (IO): Our IO session are one-off events or assemblies which we deliver in partnership with inspirational third-party volunteers and speakers (eg. a Red Arrows pilot). IO sessions can cater for larger group sizes / whole classes depending on requirements.

OUR IMPACT

Inspirational Outreach

Our Blue Skies programmes and Inspirational Outreach sessions are fully-funded by JET and delivered at no cost to schools and students. We also offer a limited number of Inspirational Outreach sessions to non-JET schools and youth groups within our operational catchments.
