School Outreach Programme

Here at the PRCA we have a mission: to inspire the next generation of communications professionals.
The mission of the Schools Outreach Programme is to inspire a new generation of communications professionals, with a particular emphasis on attracting students from diverse backgrounds. We aim to do this by connecting PR volunteers with schools and colleges across the UK to introduce them to a new creative path and exciting career in PR and Communications.
Some of the events we have supported are listed below. Our volunteers can also deliver specialist talks to give a real insight into working in PR & Comms and add tangible value to your event(s).
Talks/presentations
Speed networking
Mock interviews
Careers fairs

Fair was hugely successful, students really benefitted. They were inspired by pathways they had never considered before. Your (volunteer) stall generated a lot of interest and we are immensely grateful for your time and effort.
Huge THANK YOU!! for coming along or arranging representatives to support our event yesterday. From our point of view it was a very successful event, thanks to exhibitors being both engaging and informative. Our student loved meeting you all!
I was completely blown away by the ambition, dedication, determination and maturity of your students. They were so inspiring and polite. The school should be very proud – I have not stopped talking about it! I wish them all the best for the future and would be happy to get involved with future events like this.
