- For Key Stage 4, we have a 'virtual careers presentation' which can be delivered in the same way.
- We have a suite of online lessons accessed through our YouTube channel, see our Online lessons page for more information.
- We are offering a series of virtual assemblies each term, including sessions on water safety, the countryside code and live Q&A's with our clean and waste water operators!
Our outreach programme is based on availability. Please complete a booking enquiry form with as many date options as possible, and we will check our diary and get back to you.
