This month, our College students had the opportunity to meet with Catherine from the disability and equality charity, Scope.
Bellow, Ida tells us about her interview experience.
"Today I had my careers interview with Catherine from Scope. We talked about how I want to be a football coach when I grow up. She asked me what I like in school, I like doing maths, painting, and sports. She gave me quite good advice. She said if I want to I could visit a football club to see whats it's like to be a coach and that there is a special place you can go to try out, to be one of the football coaches that teach smaller kids to play football and I really want to do that. I think the skills I would need are to talk with the young ones and think about what they do and they can show me how they play, and I can see what they can actually do, what kind of skills they have, and how they actually play on the field. I play a lot of football and I’ve wanted to be a football coach since I was little. When I was in my old school, we had a little football club, and I was the coach and I was inspired to watch a lot of YouTube videos about how the different teenagers became coaches.
I really enjoyed my interview with Catherine, it was really inspiring."
