Event: Sprowston High School

Sprowston High School will be our first Your Future careers event in 2016. We have been listening to their Young Chamber team as well as the teachers to hear what their school would like the event to be.

We are aiming the event at Years 10-13. The school are also keen to ensure we can have some activities which enthuse some of their target improvement demographics such as middle ability boys.

We are delivering the following activities:

• Speed networking: bringing the Chamber’s expertise at business networking directly into schools. Small groups of students will have 3 mins with each business person, and rotate around the room until they have met each business! We will be encouraging students to break the ice by guessing the person’s job, and then give them an opportunity to ask more detailed questions.
• Exhibition: in their sports hall we can offer interactive ‘have a go’ activities.
• Workshops: we are currently developing sessions that will link in with their timetabled subjects such as science, maths and English. These will also show how these core skills can lead to a variety of different career paths.
• Sign up to the ‘Find an Apprenticeship’ website to help students find these opportunities.
