Ashton Sixth Form College has started working with uptree. The organisation visited the college to meet with students, explain the programme and explore how students can get involved. 

uptree is a platform set-up to connect talented young people with inspiring opportunities. Students are able to sign up to the platform, create a profile and search for opportunities that interest them most. As well as providing opportunities, uptree also acts a networking platform for both students and employers. 

Currently, uptree's partners include IBM, Google, TD Securities, Vodafone, EY, Saatchi & Saatchi, and Dentons.

Ashton Sixth Form College students now have the chance to join this platform and take advantage of the countless opportunities for work experience, placements and networking. These current opportunities include placements or apprenticeships with multinational services company PwC and multinational information technology company IBM.

The college is extremely passionate in ensuring that each students develops their skills both personally and academically. While the college works to provide students with an academic environment that pushes them to succeed, it also provides access to unrivalled opportunities to allow students to develop their CV and develop their real-life experience.
