HITZ Jump Into Employment

Hitz Jump Into Employment Logo

In partnership with the Discovery Schools Academy Trust, our HITZ course is based out of the famous Mattioli Woods Welford Road stadium, in a purpose built classroom, allowing a fun, safe and inspiring location, centred on building the skills to support young people to become work ready.

HITZ provides the opportunity to gain:

  • Maths and English Functional Skills qualification
  • BTEC Work Skills Level 2 Certificate
  • Sports Leadership Award
  • Work experience
  • Support for physical and mental health

How does the course work?

HITZ is aimed at leaners 16-19 years, however places for 19+ leaners will be considered on an individual basis. The course is 16 weeks long, with the cohort of learners starting September 2024 with a second cohort in February 25.

A typical day consists of engaging classroom sessions and bespoke enrichment opportunities, including sport, workshops and guest speakers.
