2020 - Year 10 Taster Days: East Sussex College Group
It’s that time of year again! As you know our Year 10 Taster Days for 2020 have gone live. Apologies for any problems signing up, but the issues have been resolved so all is working again now - the registration link is: https://tasters.escevents.co.uk/register
We are still continuing to follow the government guidelines closely with everything going on but we hope to be able to deliver these days for students in June/July as they are really beneficial. We are also working on a contingency plan on how we could potentially run them virtually if by the Summer the government are still advising further lockdown restrictions.
