Try-a-Job is an annual 1-day event designed to give sudents (Year 9 in mainstream secondary schools & Year 9 and above on special schools) a taste of the 'hands on' skills required in different types of work.

Each student attends three one-hour workshops run by employers, college lecturers and community groups. The range of workshops included food preparation, floristry, childcare, media editing, sports and First Aid.

Students choose in advance which workshops they want to attend as part of their Careers Education and Guidance programme and the whole process is backed up by learning materials and teacher guidance notes produced and distributed by the Enfield EBP.

If your school is interested in participating in Try-a-Job please contact the Work Related Learning Team at the Enfield EBP.

Likewise, if your company would like to know more about running a workshop at the next Try-a-Job, please contact us by email or call us on 020 8443 2114.
