Surveyors try out life on the front line (of education)...

Under the Young Enterprise scheme Severn Partnership sent 8 Surveyors to deliver 4 modules to the children at Cleobury Mortimer Primary School Shropshire. The Surveyors split into pairs to deliver to 4 classes and a total of 120 children age ranges from 5 to 11 years.

Young Enterprise is a charity which gets businesses into school to educate pupils about work and to equip young people to succeed through enterprise and to get a job when they leave education.

Severn Partnership has been involved for 7 years and had a great day at Cleobury Mortimer School where they taught the children for the whole day. The children enjoyed hearing about the surveying industry as well as a lot more interactive sessions on work in general from the home to community, the UK and even international trade.

The children and teachers were fantastic and great for the Surveyors to work in a new environment, a challenge in itself for them which helps the wider development of the Severn Partnership.
