Get paired with professionals across industries for personalised career guidance and insight. Meet four times across the academic year, online or in public places, and explore fields from medicine and law to engineering and scientific research. Where possible, join workplace tours.

The ORT JUMP Mentoring Programme pairs Year 12 students with professionals from a wide range of industries to provide personalised career guidance and industry insight. The programme runs across partner schools (primarily in London and one in Manchester) and supports students to explore career paths such as medicine, law, finance, psychology, engineering, aviation and scientific research.

Over the course of the academic year students and mentors complete full training and meet on four occasions either online or in a public place. Mentors receive guidance from ORT JUMP Programme Managers, must complete online training, follow a code of good practice and undergo an enhanced DBS check.

Where possible students are offered workplace tours, the chance to attend real meetings and access to career-focused events and webinars hosted by panels of experts; these events are open to all sixth form students in partner schools. Students are required to submit one creative piece reflecting on their mentoring experience (essay, video, poster or other) by mid-May; winners are announced at the ORT JUMP Mentoring Programme Graduation in July.

The programme also works in partnership with Gateways to provide additional support to vulnerable young people.
