An employability / careers lesson all about why employers want young people who are able to take initiative. The pack also focuses on how we can develop this skill as well as how we can demonstrate these skills to employers through job applications / personal statements.
This resource pack includes a detailed, one hour long PowerPoint with accompanying worksheets, well differentiated activities, literacy focus tasks, clip tasks with three-way differentiated questions and information sheets.
The lesson has been left editable and is filled with engaging, well differentiated activities. It is useful for PSHE, Careers or Tutor Time. As with all our lessons, you don’t need any prior knowledge as all the information is included - you can just pick up and teach it.
