NFFC THINK BIG with Ideagen 10th September 2024

12 Sep 2024

All Year 9 students were delivered an assembly on Tuesday 10th September that introduced the “Think Big” programme with NFFC and Ideagen. Year 9 students will undertake a number of workshops later this year. The aim of the programme is to use the power of football to get young people interested in technology-based jobs as a viable, exciting, and rewarding career path. As well as some technical skills, young people will be taught softer skills that will help with their employability longer term.

A partnership between Nottingham Forest Community Trust and Ideagen to promote the benefits of a career in tech for young people mean that NFFC are at Park Vale Academy today to launch the Think Big in an assembly. The Think Big programme will consist of an introductory film, workshops, access to role models and competitions. Visits to Ideagen HQ will introduce some student groups to the workplace where there will be an opportunity to take part in technology-based challenges.
