WorldSkills London  2011 is encouraging schools and colleges up and down the country to get involved in celebrating how skills shape our world.

We want WorldSkills London 2011 to be an opportunity to inspire students and open their minds to the possibilities their futures may hold. We’ll be inviting schools and colleges around the UK to join a series of activities in the weeks and months leading up to the London event.

We’ll also be offering unique competitions for school and college students, tickets to the London event and lesson plans for teachers.

Further information will be available after the summer break – before then, interested teachers can visit the WorldSkills London 2011 website to register their details from August.
