Information for Employers


Determination Respect Engagement Ambition Motivation Success

At Trafford Alternative Education Provision (TAEP), we believe that exposing students to the world of work and providing them with opportunities to engage with employers has a powerful positive impact on their development. We are dedicated to ensuring that each student experiences at least one encounter with an employer every year and that all students visit a workplace before leaving Year 11.
We are actively seeking businesses and employers to join the TAEP Careers Network. This network includes a registry of parents, staff, family friends, and local employers who are open to being contacted about careers events and visits at the school.

If you’re interested in supporting our students, we would love to hear from you. Whether you can provide a speaker to talk to students about your industry, offer a demonstration of your business, or host a small group of students on a workplace visit, your involvement would make a meaningful impact. The commitment is minimal but the difference it can make to our students is significant.
For more information or to get involved, please contact Kevin Smith, Careers Lead, at:

Phone: 0161 912 1479

In essence, through employer engagement and career exposure, TAEP provides students with the tools, inspiration, and guidance to “dare” to dream and work toward realising their aspirations.

We look forward to hearing from you and thank you for considering supporting our students’ career development!
