In this session, business volunteers will share insights, lessons and tips to motivate and inspire 14 and 15 year old students to make informed decisions about their future.

Students will attend talks on a carousel basis throughout the day. If you are available to attend at a particular time then please let me know as the programme is very fluid at the moment, you may be able to give an hour or all day, or over both days.

Their failures, as well as successes
