Abbey School

STEAM STREET is a unique, innovative, forward thinking street in the middle of our school that will allow for pupils with Special Educational Needs and Disabilities (SEND) to experience different forms of paid employment, develop skills for working life and build cultural capital.

Why is it important?
Only 3% of young people with SEND in Rotherham will progress into paid employment (7% Nationally). We want to improve that statistic, raise aspirations and widen horizons; enabling every learner to leave school with the confidence, ability and desire to make the world a better place.

How can you get involved?
Are you an innovative business with a social conscience? Can you offer your ethos, uniform, opportunities for work experience, internships or apprenticeships? Can you enable opportunities for your staff to come and work alongside our young people?

If you are interested in joining us please contact the school.

Businesses and employers have already signed up for this exciting opportunity and have made pledges. Will your business be the next to appear on STEAM STREET?
