Challenges TEX solves
Meeting Gatsby Benchmarks consistently
Schools struggle to evidence all 8 benchmarks, particularly employer encounters and personal guidance at scale.
TEX tracks career activities against each benchmark automatically, generating evidence reports for Ofsted and governance reviews.
Coordinating employer encounters
Managing relationships with dozens of employers and tracking student participation is complex without dedicated tools.
TEX's industry partnership portal manages employer relationships, schedules encounters, and tracks participation — all in one place.
Meaningful alumni engagement
Schools know alumni are valuable career mentors but lack the infrastructure to run safeguarded, scalable mentoring programs.
TEX provides end-to-end alumni mentoring: registration, verification, interest-based matching, moderated communication, and impact tracking.
