Event description
Inspire our students
In this session, business leaders inspire students about tomorrow's jobs and how they relate to the subjects students are currently learning in the classroom. We want our pupils to be prepared as possible for an appropriate destination, have high ambitions and we well educated in what the options are. Many of our pupils come from SIMD1-3 backgrounds and do not have role models in the World of work so we strive to provide them with as many opportunities to be inspired and enthused about their future careers as possible so they leave CHS confident and well prepared. The pupils will be in the assembly hall during this time and we can set up individual stations or as an assembly type event as business leaders fell appropriate.
