I feel the podcast is great for those who are interested in a career in Law, or those who want to know about the apprentice experience, so I wondered if you would like to share across your networks.

The Irwin Mitchell Podcast has great legal advice and discussions from experts about topics ranging in disability, legal advice, diversity, Trans rights etc. Their podcast episode ‘An Insight into our Apprenticeships’ discusses the day to day of being an apprentice, along with any misconceptions and skills important for the role. The podcast delivers a great educational conversation with Apprentice Paralegal Thyra Simpson, and Business Administration Apprentice Angelina Vincent, as they give insight into completing an apprenticeship instead of university.

What does the Scholarship involve?

In addition to financial support, Journey to Success offers scholars a range of self-development opportunities designed to help them fulfill their potential and develop skills needed to reach their career aspirations. Opportunities include:

Welcome Event: designed to begin building the peer support networks scholars can benefit from to ease their transition into university and maximise the potential of their degree.

Leadership development: encourage second-year Scholars to support their peers throughout the Welcome Event and first year at university.

Personal development training sessions: improve the self-awareness needed for university and graduate recruitment success.

Career Pathways and Internships: support Scholars to source meaningful work experience, access career awareness-raising activities and make professional contacts.

Alumni Network: encourages our alumni to mentor younger scholars and help build the Journey to Success support network.

As part of the programme, scholars should complete the induction process (the Welcome Event), attend two self-development workshops each year, and share a short written report describing how they are progressing through university at the end of each academic term.

The application process

All applications for Journey to Success are made by schools or universities. With over 300 applications each year for only 150 places, our team works to ensure that criteria not only takes account of relevant academic achievements and socio-economic barriers to education but also identifies candidates with the drive to be part of our self-development programme.

With this in mind, our team looks for a range of positive characteristics that can specifically help with Journey to Success. These include a willingness to engage with our training opportunities, a genuine interest in self-development and a strong desire to collaborate with others to achieve change.

In considering each application, we acknowledge the difficulty some candidates may face in describing personal challenges, but these should be balanced with examples of resilience, positive outlook and connectivity with their local community as a celebration of their abilities.

The programme has been designed to support young people who have the drive but not necessarily the means to be successful in higher education, and we rely on the schools and universities we work with to help identify the most suitable candidates based on our guidelines below. We also ask our education partners to complete a form about each nomination, telling us a little about their background and engagement with education so far.

All applications must be submitted by one of our partner schools or universities according to the following guidelines:

Resident in Scotland at the time of application. As a Scotland-wide funder, we can only consider applicants who have attended school in Scotland and are resident in Scotland at the time of application

Have made an application to a Scottish University. As a Scotland-wide funder we provide support to students at Scottish Universities.

16-25 year old accessing a programme of undergraduate study. Our programme focuses on young people accessing undergraduate study, but we acknowledge the articulation route through college.

First degree. We cannot consider applicants who have already obtained a degree.

Eligibility for SAAS support. Our financial support is intended to complement other sources of statutory support and not replace it. Candidates must be eligible for tuition fees as a minimum requirement through the Student Awards Agency for Scotland.

We are particularly interested in supporting students who are under-represented and face barriers to higher education. While we recognise the complexity of the personal challenges and socio-economic issues many potential candidates may be experiencing, we will also ask you to provide the following information in the application form if comfortable doing so:

Financial need. We support young people who experience financial barriers to participation in higher education.

Commitment to learning. We support young people who have a genuine passion and commitment for learning and for their proposed course of undergraduate study.

Keenness to participate in the Journey to Success self-development programme. We support driven young people who will want to engage with the self-development opportunities our programme provides.

Resilience. We support scholars who have shown resilience in the way they have addressed barriers in their lives.

Those from schools with low progression rates to higher education

Low-income households

Black and Minority Ethnic groups

Disabled people

Job Summary
SESSIONAL PLAY WORKERS REQUIRED TO WORK DURING SCHOOL HOLIDAYS
We are looking to recruit sessional staff to join our supply bank to support with our holiday "Snack and Play Playscheme programme." The programme operates from a number of schools across East Dunbartonshire during the school holidays and supports children who have identified additional support needs as well as those who may be classed as vulnerable.

The snack and play and playscheme services offer a fun play based environment in which children aged 5 -12 years can form friendships, develop independence, have a healthy meal and most importantly have fun!

Our 'snack and play hubs' run from 6 primary schools across East Dunbartonshire for targeted families who meet qualifying criteria. There are currently two playschemes for children with additional support needs - one based in Merkland School for children with mild to moderate support needs and one based in Campsie View School (Summer session only) for children with more complex needs. Our playschemes operate on a 1:1 or 1:2 adult to child ratio.

Successful candidates should ideally demonstrate having some experience of working with children, preferably children with additional support needs. You should also have a fun, positive and enthusiastic manner to engage children, ensuring the delivery of high quality services for children and their families.

Your duties will include working as part of a team to provide a safe, fun and stimulating environment for children, while supporting independence and social interactions. (Please read the role profile)

You will receive an induction and training sessions prior to starting each service, which will cover subjects such as Child Protection, Introduction to Nurture and ASD and Supporting Behaviours that Challenge.

The above posts are seasonal over the Easter, Summer and October school holidays. Working hours are between 9.30am and 3.30pm and work patterns can be flexible to fit around other commitments. Supply bank staff are asked their preferred work location, which we endeavour to accommodate. All successful candidates will be required to be in the Disclosure Scotland PVG scheme (cost is £59 and will come off your first wage)

PVG / Disclosure Scotland
The following criteria applies to all roles within East Dunbartonshire Council where PVG/Disclosure checks are essential criteria
Where the post you are applying for is considered Regulated Work under the Protection of Vulnerable Groups (Scotland) Act, 2007, successful candidates will be required to join the PVG Scheme, or undergo a PVG Scheme Update check, prior to confirmation of employment being made by East Dunbartonshire Council.

Please note, successful candidates will be expected to meet the cost of the relevant check which will be deducted from the successful candidate's first salary payment.

In specific circumstances the payment could be deducted in instalments from an employee's wages following commencement of employment. Approval in such circumstances will be made by HR Services Lead.

Should an employee leave in advance of the payment being deducted, the full amount will be deducted from the employee's final salary.

The criteria outlined above will apply to existing employees of East Dunbartonshire Council who apply for roles for which a PVG/Disclosure check is required.
