In-school/college activity
This series of in-school workshops can be delivered and tailored to meet the teaching and learning needs of your students. They can be offered as either an off-timetable school day or within existing PSHE/citizenship lessons. Activities can be delivered to whole year groups apart from our Year 7 Campus Challenge where priority will be given to students from under-represented groups.
