GSL World Catalyst | Toolkit

Thank you for your interest in taking part in the GSL World Catalyst. This toolkit has been designed to help you to recruit young people in your school to take advantage of this fantastic opportunity.

We want to help you to share this opportunity with your students and parents to maximise participation whilst ensuring this is not an administrative burden for you during this time.

We have included in this pack templates for you to use for each step outlined below.  Please adapt as you feel appropriate.

We advise schools, where possible to:

  1. Add an announcement to your WEBSITE
  2. Send an email to parents with an attached PARENT LETTER
  3. Share details of the programme on SOCIAL MEDIA
  4. Send a TEXT message to all parents in the target year groups
  5. Share our Student/Parent/Carer WEBINAR

Images and Posters

Promotional videos

Please feel free to share any of the videos with your students. In our experience young people respond well to stories shared by their peers who attended the programme in the past.
