Building Futures – Celebrating Our Partnership with Barnet Education and Learning Service

Over the past year, Quinn London has been proud to partner with Barnet Education and Learning Service (BELS), part of Barnet Council, to support local young people in their journey toward meaningful careers, including in construction.

Through these sessions together, we’ve reached over 1,000 students from Finchley Catholic High School, Copthall School, and Saracens High School, delivering a range of engaging workshops. Focused on employability, career development, CV writing and interview techniques, whilst exploring the diverse career pathways available within the construction industry.

Our partnership with Saint James’ Catholic High School students saw Quinn London providing career planning sessions which expresses the value of gaining work experience early. We’re delighted to be continuing this strand of work with BELS through an upcoming “Ready for Work Experience” assembly in July 2025 — designed to help students maximise the benefits of their placements.

Reflecting on the year, Tracy Parrott, Senior Curriculum Adviser at BELS, shared:

“The collaboration with Quinn London has been incredibly positive. Together, we’ve co-designed impactful activities that have prepared students for their future careers.”
