Why ?

DYW will support young people to:

Feel prepared to make choices for  their next steps

Discover how their interests, strengths and skills relate to specific job roles

Understand how their subjects relate to jobs and careers

Build networks, skills, confidence, knowledge and ideas for choices and next steps

How?

No matter where young people live they can meet employers and experience the real world of work both in the classroom and outside it.
Some examples include: Skills sessions, career events, work placements, mock interviews and workplace visits. 
   ​Young people can get support to connect with employers through their DYW School Coordinator and Regional DYW Group.
