Goal 5

Take advantage of the skills and employment opportunities of the future

As a partnership, we want our residents and businesses to be ready for the future and to benefit it from it.

Bexley is open for business, and our residents - across all the age ranges - need the right skills and opportunities.

That’s why, as a partnership, we’re working to make sure that the skills and employment offer now and in the future is flexible, accessible and desirable. And we’re making the most of our emerging green cluster and building on our strong local construction industry.

What we will achieve

  • Form a learning & skills alliance between schools, colleges and businesses
  • Develop and promote career pathways and job opportunities in green, STEM and construction industries for students and existing workers, supported by relevant learning/upskilling offer

Full action plans to follow soon
