Event description

Languages in the World of Work
***Event will take place on MSTeams***

I want to let our pupils know how studying a language will be useful to them.

We live in a small community and many of our young people have not had the chance to travel internationally recently due to Covid and we are struggling to show the relevance of languages to their life.

It would be great if speakers could explain what they do in their job without actually saying what they do, and the pupils could guess what their job is.
