Describe a typical day? During term time my day might include liaisingwith schools to recruit children for the project, co-ordinating with ourpartner organisations, making sure the projects are planned andprogramming is suitable for eight- to 16-year-olds. I also deal withenquiries from parents and other project managers, making sure all theresources we need are ordered. During holidays when the project sessionsare running I take part in leading them, working with the partners,parents and children taking part.
