Year 9 and 10 students Take Over the workplace!
Posted on: 08/11/2024Year 9 and Year 10 students at Didcot Girls' School have been involved in some unique and fun Career related experiences this week.
Year 9s have embraced the Takeover Challenge with over 200 students 'taking over' companies in the local community, gaining invaluable experience of the workplace and developing their employability skills. This included students undertaking placements at Tokamak on Milton Park.
Meanwhile, 100 pupils in Year 10 have taken over the role of a member of staff at DGS itself, as part of our renowned and always super enjoyable Takeover Day. This year, pupils were not only replacing their teachers and delivering lessons but also took over the roles of support staff such as Finance, the Catering and Pupil Services Team.
Many thanks to all involved for offering such wonderful, enriching, learning opportunities.
