Host a Workplace Visit
Both primary and secondary schools are looking for opportunities to bring students for a visit to see working practices and environments at first hand. These visits could include tours, practical activities and tasters, presentations or the chance for pupils to question employees.
Most commonly secondary schools request visits linked to particular vocational areas, such as Business Studies, ICT, Health and Social Care or Engineering.
Inspire works with companies to plan the visits to ensure they meet the needs of the school, including addressing any health and safety issues.
The length of visits varies from a couple of hours to a day.
We aim to build up a register of companies that could potentially host visits to help us respond quickly to requests from schools.
