School and college outreach
School and college outreach
Choosing which path to take after school can be a difficult decision for students. As their teacher, your role makes a big difference. That’s why we work so closely with schools and colleges.
We provide interactive workshops and presentations including applying to university, employability and communication skills, as well as popular sessions on careers in the creative industries.
