This resource aims to extend children's understanding of the job opportunities that await them in their local community and beyond. Positioned on this backdrop, the resource comes as one of a series of lessons that provide a school with an engaging and impactful dimension to their 'problem-solving' curriculum.

Central to the experience children gain from the resource is the sense of visiting a local business or organisation; in this case, the North East Mayoral Strategic Authority, Operations Directorate, and we extend our thanks to them.
