London Skills for Growth Limited
London Skills for Growth Limited is a registered charity (No. 288465) focused on advancing education and employability for young people, particularly those aged 14–19 from disadvantaged backgrounds. Established as a charity, it aims to bridge the gap between education and employment by providing vocational training, apprenticeships, and work-based learning opportunities[4].

History and Operations
Founded to address the growing number of young people leaving school without essential skills for employment, the organisation initially operated independently before merging with London South East Colleges. Its programmes—including traineeships and apprenticeships—prioritise practical, employer-aligned training to prepare participants for the workforce[1][3].

Programmes and Impact
The charity delivers technical and vocational education (SIC code 85320) through structured schemes that incorporate work experience, employer engagement, and skills development. Its curriculum emphasises workplace behaviours and competencies demanded by modern employers, targeting individuals furthest from education or employment[3][4].

Organisational Structure
As a private company limited by guarantee without share capital (Company No. 01747251), it operates under a governance model typical of educational nonprofits. Prior to 2017, it was named Bexley Youth Training Group and Triple Take Limited during its early years[2].

Post-Merger Status
Following its merger, the charity’s activities continue under London South East Colleges, ensuring sustained delivery of its education and training objectives[1].
