The Air League has launched its 2024-2025 Soaring to Success schools programme to encourage students aged 13 to 17 to pursue a career in aviation.
Soaring to Success is open for registrations from state schools and colleges. The programme begins in November with a series of career conferences led by the aviation industry to show the range of roles and careers.
Participating companies include British Airways, Boeing, Airbus, BAE Systems, Eagle Eye Innovations, Lockheed Martin and NATS.
“The launch of the 2024-25 programme is very exciting,” said Andy Jervis of The Air League.
“Over the past two years we have reached over 21,000 young people through the conferences and seen the thrill on the faces of more than 300 youngsters taking their first flights.
“High quality careers information and meaningful interaction with industry experts are at the core of the programme with the express intent to break down social and economic barriers and allow students across the UK to make more informed choices when choosing their next steps and careers.”
