For Teachers

OPEN ROAD WEST NORFOLK (ORWN) is designed for Year 10 and 11 students, both male and female.

At ORWN our goal is to provide you with an alternative practical educational tool. It allows you to refocus students' aims whilst they earn a nationally recognised qualification which leads to real workplace apprenticeship opportunities.

ORWN works closely with your school to help identify those students who will benefit the most from attending our predominantly practical learning and assessment courses.

Like you, we appreciate that not everyone is the same. Some young people can be better developed in a traditional educational environment, for others, it's the hands-on practical experience that helps them become better equipped to take their place in society.

Building individual confidence and self-esteem, ORWN also helps  in developing team participation skills and is as much a part of our ethos as helping young people obtain a professional qualification – IMI AWARDS ENTRY LEVEL CERTIFICATE for the INTRODUCTON to VEHICLE TECHNOLOGY.

As part of the OPEN ROAD AND SCHOOLS PARTNERSHIP we provide a 4-weekly student review with the school. The review encompasses elements including: standard of work, concentration, attitude and teamwork as well as attendance, timekeeping, health& safety and self-discipline. We are confident you will experience anuplift in student in-school achievement both during and after their enrolment with OPEN ROAD WEST NORFOLK.
