About the BEA
A stronger bridge between business and education.
The Business & Education Alliance exists to narrow the divide between local employers and schools, so communities can create more opportunity for children and young people.
Our mission
To create structured, accountable partnerships between businesses and schools that fund enrichment, share expertise and strengthen local communities.
Our vision
A United Kingdom where every school can access meaningful local business support and no child is excluded from enriching experiences solely because of cost.
Our principles
Child-centred
Partnership activity should produce an appropriate benefit for children and young people.
Local
Relationships should strengthen the places where businesses, schools and families live and work.
Accountable
Expectations, contributions and outcomes should be clear and reportable.
