Despite limited transport options, the Primary Futures platform has enabled Tom’s pupils to visit a range of exciting workplaces from Merchant Navy ships to farmers’ fields – all done virtually! Tom has also encouraged his teachers to use the platform to seek out volunteers who can support curriculum learning and show children the value of their school subjects beyond the classroom.
“The impact of these visits has helped our children to aim high and broaden their career ambitions. By connecting our pupils to real-life, inspiring individuals we are making sure nothing is left to chance.”
