“Hi, I’m Sam, a former classroom teacher. I head up the programme team at Speakers for Schools, the largest social mobility charity in the UK. We’ve partnered with The Careers and Enterprise Company to give KS3 students the opportunity to access life-changing virtual work experience”.
Priority will be given to schools in rural and coastal areas that face additional barriers to finding placements.
- 35 sessions of 3-day virtual work experience placements
- Work on real-world tasks with workplace tours
- Boost essential skills, build networks with prospective employers and explore careers
The project will allow us to explore and feedback on the barriers to providing meaningful virtual experiences as an employer, school, and young person. Find out more about our delivery models and how you can get involved.
