Secondary Schools
We provide careers assemblies highlighting the work companies do in the technology sector within Cornwall. These last from 15 minutes up to 45 minutes.
Workshops on Python programming with Microbits and also the Microbits and our Mission to Mars rovers. Then short Bytesize versions of the work experience coding utilising Arduino and the rovers. Sessions are from an hour in length with all the equipment provided. No internet access is required as all necessary software has already been downloaded onto the 20 Raspberry Pi computers we bring in to the school. Maximum class size is 30, minimum 10.
Careers Carousels require the participation of various companies. Students rotate around the company tables in small groups asking questions of the employers for around 10 minutes per table. We will attend a careers carousel though the organisation of all the companies is up to you.
