Are you looking for something different to introduce your careers subjects
Are your careers classes stretched for time? Would you like to use fun resources that involve students in your careers class?
Our careers modules are quick and easy for teachers to use. Fun and interactive for students. Students act a short play, about 8-10 minutes, to introduce the subject then move onto questions and discussion.
If you want your classroom to come alive discussing how to develop a CV, checking out personal skills and qualities, preparing for an interview or interviewing a mystery guest to find out what they do then try one of our modules. Use as a complete lesson plan or incorporate with your resources.
You don't need any drama or acting skills, just a sense of fun and a desire to try something different.

In this classroom-based module, students and teachers are encouraged to discuss the role, structure and presentation of a CV and to produce their own Curriculum Vitae.
