Ideas for Schools
Schools could raise students’ awareness of Apprenticeships by organising “Get with Apprenticeships” themed events and activities, which could include:
- Inviting a local Apprenticeship employer and their apprentices to give a presentation to your students, explaining more about Apprenticeships and the benefits.
- Running a WorldSkills UK skills competition within your school, or in partnership with other schools. See the schools toolkit for guidance and resources.
- Working in partnership with a local college or training provider to deliver “Get with Apprenticeships” themed activity in the school, or take pupils to visit events they are running.
- Running your own WorldSkills UK “Have-a-Go” event to encourage your students to try a new skill.
- Adding the National Apprenticeship Week supporter logo and link to the apprenticeships.org.uk website to your e-mail signature, website and other communications.
