School Reporters from City of Ely Community College in Cambridgeshire
|
Schools are being given the opportunity to take part in a dress rehearsal for the UK-wide News Day.
School Reporters are being invited to take part in the final of four practice News Days on Thursday 12 February.
It is a chance for schools to dive in at the deep end and see what they can achieve.
During the ultimate News Day on 26 March 2009 students will be working to a 2pm deadline to create video, audio and text-based news before publishing it on their school website by 4pm.
Schools taking part in a practice News Day might like to rehearse some of these elements.
During the day, the progress of students across the UK progress will be featured in an hour-by-hour account, enabling students to compare their work with other School Reporters.
The choice of news topics to report is completely up to the the students, but they may like to look at these suggestions.
Schools may also run practice News Days on any date they choose.
During School Report 2007/8, some schools took part in all four practice News Days in order, giving different students the chance to rehearse and also to ensure a smooth operation on the UK-wide News Day.
If you would like to take part, please contact the School Report team using the form below so they can contact you on the day.
The BBC may edit your comments and not all emails will be published. Your comments may be published on any BBC media worldwide.
