GCSE results day is tomorrow! 🎓

Good luck to everyone collecting their results, and a huge well done to everyone who received their A-level results last week.

Whatever tomorrow brings, there are plenty of opportunities and different routes ahead. If you get the grades you hoped for, congratulations! If things don’t quite go to plan, that’s okay too.

Swipe through for five reminders to help put results into perspective.

From everyone at The Skills Network, well done for getting this far and good luck with whatever comes next! 🍀

It's National Relaxation Day, and in a world that often encourages us to keep going, today is a good reminder that taking time to pause is important too.

Relaxation and self-care can look different for everyone. It might be stepping away from your screen, going for a walk, spending time with people you love, enjoying a hobby or simply doing absolutely nothing for a little while. 💙

Taking time to recharge isn’t a luxury. It’s an important part of looking after our wellbeing.

So today, take a moment to slow down, switch off and do something that helps you feel refreshed. ✨

July is a key month for global sustainability action - with Plastic Free July encouraging millions worldwide to reduce single‑use plastics and protect our oceans.

After returning from Hurghada, Egypt, our colleague Tracey shared how she joined a local beach clean‑up, supporting the hotel’s green sustainability commitment and helping protect the coastline.

Her actions are a brilliant reminder that sustainability isn’t just something we talk about - it’s something we do.

At The Skills Network, we’re proud to support this momentum. We offer a range of sustainability and environmental courses designed to help individuals and organisations build greener habits, strengthen environmental awareness, and drive positive change.

🌟 Feedback Friday 🌟

There's no better way to end the week than by celebrating the success of our learners.

Here's what one of our learners had to say about their experience with The Skills Network:

"I've completed several courses with The Skills Network, and I've been very happy with my experience. The courses are excellent and have helped me prepare for my next career step. The certificates are valuable, and the support team is always friendly, responsive, and supportive. As someone with dyslexia, I felt fully understood, and they provided the help and support I needed throughout my learning. I would definitely recommend The Skills Network to anyone looking to learn new skills or gain recognised qualifications."

We're especially proud to hear that our learner felt supported every step of the way. Creating an inclusive learning environment where everyone can thrive is at the heart of what we do.

Thank you for sharing your journey with us - we're delighted to have been part of your career progression and wish you every success in your next chapter. 💙

Thinking about gaining new skills or recognised qualifications? There's never been a better time to invest in your future.

Colleges across the FE sector are continuing to face real challenges in recruiting enough specialist staff to deliver high‑demand technical programmes.

In this video, our CEO Mark Dawe shares how we’ve been working with colleges, including Leeds College of Building, to develop new blended learning resources that offer practical support where capacity is stretched.

Our first release, Electrical Science, is a blended learning resource that supports delivery of Level 2 Electrical Installation qualifications.

With 90 guided learning hours of structured electrical science e-learning content, it can support or replace classroom delivery. Early feedback from colleges has been extremely positive, helping teams strengthen delivery, save staff time and deliver consistent programmes.

And this is just the beginning. We’re already developing further blended resources to help providers build more flexible and resilient delivery models.
