Learn New Skills Through National Citizen Service

Year 11 and 12 students can make the most of their summer and take on new challenges by signing up to the government’s National Citizen Service.

The programme helps young people to build skills for work and life and offers them the chance to:

  • Meet other young people and tackle outdoor challenges on an exciting residential week away from home;
  • Join with local businesses and leaders to learn new skills for work and life;
  • Make their mark by getting involved with local volunteering projects;

NCS takes place over several weeks during the school holidays. It includes a residential at PGL outdoor pursuit centre, a week at university and a project in the local community.

Make your summer holiday count this year - visit www.ncsem1.org.uk to find out more or see TimelyAdvice in the library. Places are allocated on a first-come, first-serve basis so make sure you apply soon.
