Webster’s High School – Creative Careers Week
The primary aim of our Creative Careers Week is to give pupils an insight into different careers within the creative industries. The workshops were delivered by industry experts and included workshops on drama performance, architecture, computer games development, choreography, DJ skills, museum curating, jewellery making and costume making. During the workshops pupils hear about career pathways as well as having the opportunity to take part in some practical activities related to each career.
Hosted over four days, workshops were attended by 138 pupils within S2. There were nine different workshops offered to the pupils who were asked to sign up to two workshops of interest.
