Educational Visits Coordinator training
Bromley EBP provides the Educational Visits Service package for schools and educational establishments. The support provides training and guidance for educational visits and access to EVOLVE which is an on-line system for the planning and management of sports fixtures and school trips. We recently held two training sessions for new EVs and as a refresher for those already trained which were delivered by our external Outdoor Learning consultants.

Engaging with our employers
Bromley EBP provides the link between local and national employers and young people/schools. We have recruited, developed and sustained relationships with many employers who are keen to work with us to help improve young people’s transition to work. We hold annual briefing sessions at the beginning of each academic year at the Civic Centre to link up with our key employer representatives and meet organisations who are interested in finding out more about what we do. If you are an employer who would like to support young people in the Bromley community and meet your corporate social responsibility commitment, contact us to find out more about the briefings.
