Careers - Work It
Working Week
Six different people between the ages of 22 and 30 let us into their busy lives to get a real flavour of their working weeks. What are the day-to-day demands? How do they manage their money, their social lives, their relationships and the stresses of their jobs?

Programme 1 - Hair Colour Technician
Matt, a hair colour technician, prepares for a competition photo-shoot, and at the same time steels his nerves for a public demonstration he has to give. The series is filmed in a popular docu-soap style designed to appeal to the target age group, with the curriculum issues being subliminal rather than overtly stated.

Programme 2 - Emergency Nurse
Debbie, an A&E nurse, takes her Triage test and takes on responsibility for a Saturday night in the A&E unit. The series is filmed in a popular docu-soap style designed to appeal to the target age group, with the curriculum issues being subliminal rather than overtly stated.

Programme 3 - Journalist
Ayesha, a journalist, is looking for a break but still has to do her staff-reporting job every day, digging up stories. The series is filmed in a popular docu-soap style designed to appeal to the target age group, with the curriculum issues being subliminal rather than overtly stated.

Programme 4 - Youth Worker
Wayne, a youth worker, turns his group of tough street kids from wannabe trouble-makers to wannabe MCs, and they do their thing at the St Paul’s carnival. The series is filmed in a popular docu-soap style designed to appeal to the target age group, with the curriculum issues being subliminal rather than overtly stated.

Programme 5 - Businesswoman
Iona runs a small-business. Being an events co-ordinator is highly stressful, but Iona can’t let it show at the wedding. The series is filmed in a popular docu-soap style designed to appeal to the target age group, with the curriculum issues being subliminal rather than overtly stated.

Programme 6 - Shop Display
Vicky, a visual merchandiser, is under pressure to get the ‘sales’ window displays done in time and to the tight brief from head office. The series is filmed in a popular docu-soap style designed to appeal to the target age group, with the curriculum issues being subliminal rather than overtly stated.
