Lead the Way
Lead the Way is aimed at building confidence, leadership and other skills with a targeted group of learners.
The project will be delivered over an 8-week period with 5 separate interventions.
These focus on different elements, including leadership, teamwork and planning, and will culminate in the delivery of a social action project that each group will be encouraged to identify and develop. The learners will then have an opportunity to reflect on the project, what worked well and how they could use the skills they developed in their future careers/educational pathways.
