Industry Mentored Client-based Project

A small class enabled Steve Andrew at St John's College to implement a programme where each student work with their own choice of client from outside school on an authentic issue with guidance and advice from an appropriate industry mentor set up by the teacher. This programme has formed the basis of his subsequent Year 13 programme with a much greater number of students.
