DO ONE THING

4/9/2018

 
Have you ever worked with education? Would you like to? It is easier than you think.

If you can give up an hour or two of your time then all we need is for you to “Do one thing!”

By getting involved you can motivate, inspire and stimulate a pupil by giving them an opportunity to benefit from your knowledge and on the job practical skills.

You can also help them develop their soft skills such as self-confidence, assertiveness, communication, inquisitiveness and creativity.

Can you make your 'one thing' a work placement?

Nationally only 27% of employers offer work placements however development of career management skills in young people at this stage is crucial.
