Heathrow Inclusive Learning Partnership (HILP)
The Heathrow Inclusive Learning Partnership (HILP) is an outstanding initiative empowering SEND (Special Educational Needs and Disabilities) learners by connecting education and industry through inspired, real-world experiences.
In collaboration with HRUC (Harrow, Richmond, and Uxbridge College), Heathrow, and over 20 strategic partners, HILP offers exceptional work experiences, workshops, and stirring site visits. These opportunities are designed to boost employability, life skills, and confidence, fostering inclusivity and community engagement while providing valuable industry insights and practical skills.
South London Colleges and Universities Partnership
HRUC are proud to be part of the launch of a new and ground-breaking partnership to boost skills, jobs and innovation across South London and the sub-region.
Bringing together 10 institutions, underpinned by a Memorandum of Understanding, and uniting us under the banner of the South London Colleges & Universities Partnership, the agreement sets out a coordinated focus on skills, innovation and growth.
The partnership is ground-breaking due to its focus on promoting collaboration between Further and Higher Education.
By aligning research, skills provision and employer engagement, we aim to help businesses find the expertise they need and residents move more easily from education into high-quality jobs.
BIG Ambition
The partnership builds on the excellent collaborative work already taking place across the sub-region between further education colleges, universities, industry and wider partners. It will work closely with the South London Partnership – the cross-party collaboration of the London Boroughs of:
- Croydon
- Kingston upon Thames
- Merton
- Richmond upon Thames
- and Sutton.
Looking to deliver on the BIG Ambition: South London Growth, a blueprint for accelerating South London’s economy, attracting investment, and supporting more people into well-paid, secure jobs.
