WHO WE SERVE

Our Partners

Talentino works with organisations that strengthen what schools, colleges and professionals can offer young people, especially where inclusion, employer engagement and progression need to work together rather than in silos.

Partnerships that help turn inclusive careers into real opportunities.

We believe meaningful careers education is built through collaboration. That means combining specialist SEND expertise with the right strategic, employer and enterprise partnerships so that inclusive careers support feels practical, joined-up and easier to deliver.

Some partnerships help shape the wider system. Others help create better tools, stronger employer links or more accessible enterprise opportunities. Together, they help us bring inclusive careers into sharper focus.

Ductu supports employer engagement across education, helping careers leaders and SENCOs connect major employers with SEND students while reducing admin and improving access. Ductu joined the Get Set family in 2026, strengthening our long-established partnership.

Our inclusive careers education together with Ductu’s technology-enabled employer experiences create a more connected pathway from classroom learning to real-world work, particularly for learners with SEND or additional needs. 

It helps make workplace encounters, employer links and real-world opportunities feel more practical, joined-up and scalable for schools. Together, we can support a more connected journey from classroom learning to meaningful workplace experience.

The Peter Jones Foundation’s Tycoon Enterprise Competition is a national enterprise competition for students aged 6 to 18. It supports enterprises built by young people with funding opportunities and recognition through the annual award ceremony.

Our collaboration is designed specifically to expand the Tycoon programme to SEND learners, helping schools and colleges strengthen careers strategy, SEND specialist resources, staff confidence and employer links. The Talentino! Tycoon Award spotlights enterprise success for learners with SEND or additional needs and reflects our shared commitment to making enterprise meaningful and achievable for more learners.

Through our work with the Peter Jones Foundation, Talentino! helps make enterprise more inclusive, more accessible and more relevant for SEND learners. It is a partnership that supports confidence, teamwork, creativity and real-world business thinking in a way that opens up possibility.
