Media Experience Launch
Nick being interviewed by students from Sacred Heart School as part of the Media Experience Programme
On Friday Nick attended the launch of Media Experience, a new project run at the Chronicle offices in central Newcastle. The scheme aims to give school groups from around the North East a hands-on guide to life in the media industry. It has a lot to offer in teaching young people about the press, while also helping with numeracy, literacy and IT skills. Nick was interviewed by Newcastle students who were then able to draw up a mock Chronicle front page setting out their scoop.
Nick said: “I am hugely enthusiastic about this project, and I was delighted to be invited along. The media is a very strong and growing industry and this facility will provide a very valuable service.”
