Think Forward

Think Forward

Bluecoat Trent Academy is proud to partner with ThinkForward through their pioneering FutureMe programme, ensuring our students receive tailored, long-term support from Year 9 through to Post‑16. FutureMe is a unique five-year initiative that works alongside young people from age 13 to 18, delivering continuous encouragement, pastoral care, guidance, and employability training.

At the heart of this partnership is a dedicated ThinkForward coach based full time within our school. This coach builds meaningful, trusted relationships through a blend of one-to-one mentoring and group sessions. Students in Years 9–11 and those in Post‑16 provision benefit from personalised support that enhances key Work Readiness Capabilities, developing confidence, resilience, organisation, communication, and more, all crucial for navigating future education, employment, and life beyond school .

Across their five-year journey, our young people engage in a rich suite of employability opportunities. These include insightful CV-writing workshops, mock interview practice, structured work experience placements, and access to business mentoring. Through these activities, they connect directly with employers from local businesses to larger national organisations, helping them broaden horizons and overcome barriers often outside the reach of school, family, or community networks.
