Applications are open for Takeover Day 2015

This year we’ve had our best response from local businesses and have placements with organisations ranging from the EDP to Banham Zoo, from MPs to Norwich Research Park.

The young people involved gain a lot from the experience, including:

  • new skills, knowledge and inspiration
  • a better understanding of how organisations are run and the processes behind the decisions which affect them
  • experience of leadership and decision-making
  • higher confidence, self-esteem and aspirations for the future.

You can download an information pack using the link above. Please promote Takeover Day to your students and encourage them to apply.

The event takes place on the 20th of November and the deadline for applications is the 25th of October.

There is some more information on our website: www.norfolk.gov.uk/takeoverday.
