“Everything is theoretically impossible, until it is done.” – Robert A. Heinlein Reflecting on National Careers Week last week, we are incredibly proud of how Healing Academy continues to lead the way. For us, #NCW2026 isn't just a date on the calendar it is a vital part of our Careers Strategy to support our students and the wider community. Last week we led on the National Careers Week National Conference focusing on work experiences at STEM Learning Centre in York. It was great seeing the ambition of students like former pupil Jaya, the why behind our mission has never been clearer. Our Strategic Focus • Empowering positive change: Providing the high-quality CEIAG (Careers Education, Information, Advice, and Guidance) students need to own their future. • System Leadership: Developing careers that supports other schools within our community. • Collaboration: Working alongside the formidable partners like Sewell Group, NatWest, NHS, and the DfE to bridge the gap between classroom and career. #NationalCareersWeek #CareersStrategy #HealingAcademy #HarbourLearningTrust #STEM
