WMG Academy’s recent Open Evening was a resounding success, bringing together over 500 guests to learn more about our innovative approach to education, hands-on learning, and the pathways we create for young people to enter thriving careers. This year’s Open Evening provided an insight into the Academy’s values and achievements, industry standard specialist equipment and impressive destinations (7 times the national average of Apprenticeships secured in 2024).
A Collective Effort for a Shared Mission
The WMG Trust partners and stakeholders included Alumni from 10 companies, Governors, Edu-Caterers and Business Partner representation from National Grid, JLR, Arup, Arcadis, RAF, University of Warwick University, WMG and The Solihull Chamber of Commerce.
Industry Connections, Alumni Success, and Real-World Opportunities
WMG Academy’s commitment to blending education with career readiness was highlighted particularly where industry partners showcased the direct employment, apprenticeship and university pathways available to students. Our alumni, now leaders in fields like engineering, business, and technology, were central to the evening, sharing their journeys and underscoring the value of a WMG education. As role models and mentors, our alumni network not only highlights the Academy’s impact but also offers current students guidance and real-world insights, opening doors to fulfilling and impactful careers.
