COVID-19 UPDATE 07.01.2021

COVID-19 and national restrictions meant we needed to quickly respond to a new way of delivery in prison education. Our teams have worked tirelessly to create workbooks and provide new ways of working so that we can continue to support our learners with access to education to enable them to achieve the best outcome they can. 

We are working closely with Her Majesty’s Prison and Probation Service (HMPPS) and Youth Custody Service (YCS) to create a COVID-safe programme of learning that has the health and safety of our learners and colleagues at its heart, just as other education settings are doing across the country. Health and safety is an area of critical importance to us and our central Group COVID team has been in continuous operation since the beginning of the pandemic managing and monitoring all risks and issues rigorously and consistently.

Employability Day 2017 logo

To celebrate UK Employability Day 2017, Novus is hosting a series of events across the country with employer partners, to highlight the importance of equipping our learners with the employability skills they need to find work when they leave prison.

Novus currently provides education, training and employment opportunities to adults and young people in establishments in the North East, Yorkshire and Lincolnshire, the North West, Kent and Sussex, and London, and events have been organised in each region for Friday 14 July, UK Employability Day.

Organised by the Employment Related Services Association (ERSA), Employability Day provides the employment support sector with the opportunity to show what employment support is and its importance in helping people move towards, or into, employment, and the impact nationally, regionally and in the local area.

Chris Horton, Director of Operations for Novus, said: “We are delighted to be part of Employability Day. We firmly believe in the importance of providing our learners with the right employability skills, in order to give them the best opportunity to gain employment on release from prison, which in turn helps to tackle re-offending rates.

“The passion and commitment of our colleagues and partners helps us to support our learners in acquiring the skills they need to move into work and ultimately help them to transform their lives, and I’d like to thank all our partners for supporting our events across the regions.”
