Recently awarded academy status, Shotton Hall School in Peterlee, near Newcastle, was the venue for an inspiring and motivational day for 25 Year 10 students. As part of a three day programme, supported by PwC, EiA ran an exciting day for the Aim Higher category of students at the school. As part of the PwC in the Community programme, this was a great opportunity for staff at the company's office in Newcastle to continue their proactive volunteering work in the community.

One student said " ..doing the presentations at the front of the class built up my confidence.". All the students will now go on to complete the two final days which will focus on building up their entrepreneurial skills and identifying the right skill set for being successful in the 21st Century's marketplace.
