DITA will be starting two programmes with schools across the Dales in September.

The Riot Act will be visiting 8 schools across the Dales, and conducting a series of workshops with a theme on sustainable travel. Following the workshops, the pupils will be taking part in a ‘Dragon’s Den’ style task, which will culminate in a final day event in November with judges from the transport sector and prizes. It is hoped that the campaigns students come up with may be implemented by DITA going forward.

 

In addition to this, NYBEP will be working with 6^th formers across the Dales, providing challenges for students to undertake as part of their ICT coursework. Again, it is hoped that the results can be utilised by DITA.
