“The Adopt a School project helped to change the image of the manufacturing industry in the eyes of students. It provided a way to relate to the students about career options and helped to build enterprise skills such as problem-solving, team work, planning and communication skills.” Phil Stuckey, Managing Director, Kooka Brothas.

“Adopt A School is essentially about building partnerships to maximize opportunities for young people and to generate links for business to their future workforce. Our experience to date has been extremely positive with program partners reporting positive outcomes and being enthusiastic about getting started on their next project.” Heather Ridout, Chief Executive, Ai Group.
