Event description

Inspire our Young People

Our Primary 7 pupils are looking to get an insight into various industries and careers in order to prepare them for Mock Interviews which will be undertaken by older pupils.

We are holding these sessions from Monday 21st until Thursday 24th and if you cannot manage this event but would like to take part on another day, please contact community@founders4schools.org.uk

"In this session, business volunteers will share insights, lessons and tips to motivate and inspire your students to make informed decisions about their future.

Speakers will ‘tell a story’ about their career journey:

• Subjects they studied and how these are relevant now

• What inspired them to choose their career path

• Their failures, as well as successes

• What their company does and why this is important

• What they enjoy most about their career

• Skills currently relevant in the jobs they are doing now."
