What is Skills Street?
Skills Street is an immersive and innovative careers training experience developed to inspire and inform children, young people, and adults from across the South Yorkshire region.
Based on the site of the UK’s newest Theme Park, Gulliver’s Valley, Skills Street will transform the way the region delivers careers training for schools with this new hands-on approach to developing, growing and honing skills.
This interactive training centre will be delivered by a partnership between Gulliver’s Valley Theme Park Resort, The Work-wise Foundation and The Source Skills Academy, creating a Centre of Excellence in training from retail to construction and from hospitality to manufacturing.
Construction will begin in 2023 with the aim of opening Skills street in 2024.
Skills Street will…
From primary age upwards children will be able to experience the wonderful world of work in a fun and interactive way through business-driven role play attractions.
Individuals and families will be able explore the great opportunities for careers and training in the region in a relaxed and informal careers community café.
A creative environment will allow careers training to flourish at all levels from school leavers to business leaders in the leadership academy through to returners to work.
Young people will be shown the amazing career opportunities available in the South Yorkshire area. This will be delivered by a team of edutainers who will bring the opportunities to life and showcase the variety of careers on offer.
