For work experience and your first job, do you want to work for a big company with a famous reputation… or a small company or an exciting startup where you can try all kinds of work?

As part of a programme organised by the Prince's Trust Enterprise Challenge, last week Friday, a group of about 30 of our pupils met their business mentors and the volunteers were absolutely thrilled by their creativity and enthusiasm.

Envision - Community-Apprentice Programme

On Tuesday 15th January 2019, 15 Year 10 students from Deptford Green School were invited to the launch of Envision’s Community-Apprentice programme, a 13-week inter-school competition across Lewisham. The competition requires each team to run an awareness-raising and fundraising project for their chosen charity in their school and a partner business. They will receive support along the way from a dedicated team of business mentors from the Department of Culture, Media and Sport, as well as weekly in-school guidance from their Envision Coach. Throughout the programme the young people develop key employability skills such as confidence, determination and teamwork.

Good luck to all ex DG students who have applied to university! We look forward to hearing about all your offers!
