Territory Mapping In Schools
Unleashing children's future potential
Territory Mapping CIC has recently developed an exciting programme for schools, designed to motivate and enthuse all children to map out their futures. Working in partnership with Local Authorities, Education Business Partnerships and Enterprise Gateways. Although the programme had been designed to specifically help those children who are facing difficulties and challenges about what to do after their school education, it can be adopted by any child looking to "map out their future".
The Pilot Programme is taking place at a school in Southampton involving a group of 35 Year 9 children. The children have three day sessions facilitated by Sue Murkin of London Life Coaches who also is a Territory Mapping coach. The children have each come up with ideas for chosen careers, or businesses and have been mapping out what they need to do to reach their goals. Children are encouraged to look at their interests and what they enjoy doing and to see how this could be incorporated into their future working life - so far we have children aspiring to be Forensic Scientist, Vet, Paleontologist, Electrician, Architect, Lawyers, Dancers, Musicians to name a few.
