What's on offer?
The Kids Interview Entrepreneurs podcast activity allow pupils to interview local entrepreneurs to learn more about entrepreneurship - inspiring pupils aged 11-18 to start-up. We’ve recorded 40+ podcasts to date and the episodes go out on YouTube as well as Spotify - with the social media shorts going out on Instagram | TikTok | and YouTube shorts.
We usually go into secondary schools to record the podcasts. Only for the Kids Interview Entrepreneurs Podcasting Day will we run special days to record 4 new episodes on the University of Liverpool campus, or in a local school that we deliver the Enterprise Education in Secondary Schools programme. All the podcasts are done infront of secondary school pupils that come on-site for the morning or afternoon to listen/interact/learn.
We will record 2 new podcasts during the morning session, between 09:30-12:00 (midday), and another 2 episodes during the afternoon session, between 13:00-15:00. We will also provide lunch between 12:00-13:00 that pupils in the morning and afternoon session are all welcome to come to either after or before the podcasts they participate in; this will be the perfect opportunity for students with an interest in entrepreneurship to interact with one another. Refreshments and snacks are also provided throughout the day for everyone involved.
What's it about?
