BBC news school report website.



Please see the link below for the BBC news school report website.

This is a great way for getting schools and young people involved in making news reports about various things happening within their area.You can watch news reports being delivered by young people online. I stumbled upon this link when I visited the Camden for school girls website who are one the many schools involved in the project. This project may be a good way of helping young people decide if they are interested in journalism and also being involved in something positive that they can talk about durning their college or university interviews. As well as something they can add to their personal statement for UCAS. 

If you know a young person who would be interested in the project please pass the information on to them and if don't know whether their school is already involved they should ask. If they find out they are the school can register online details are given on the website. If you want to watch any of the videos they are all available online.
