Volunteers support young people who are currently excluded from mainstream schools, through career-focused workshops/mock interviews during this morning event.
Discover, Believe, Become day with Key Stage 4 students (ages 15-16yrs) at Links Academy, St Albans
Assist with simple recruitment activities and share personal experiences. Ideal for those seeking a unique school experience. Engage in small-group career-focused activities and discussions, with activities lasting 20-30 mins. Students may be initially hesitant but gradually become engaged. ELSA workshops promote networking, skill awareness, interactive tasks, mock interviews, and aspiration elevation. The day is supportive, with staff guidance.
We want every ELSA volunteer to feel confident and fully prepared. To support this, we would be delighted to offer a short Teams call to walk you through the day’s format, explain how your involvement will make a real difference for the young people, and answer any questions you may have.
Looking forward to hearing from you.
Thank you!
