IPC Media - Schools' Design Programme

The IPC Schools’ Design Programme aims to encourage students to consider a career in magazine design and to raise their aspirations. It targets secondary school students in Southwark, involves several IPC designers using and passing on their skills and culminates in a week’s work experience at IPC.

IPC Media's investment:

£39,000 in cash (£24,000 funded by our parent company, Time Warner); £6,000 time; magazine copies

Project Achievements:

Around 80 students have so far had the chance to work at IPC and to gain an insight into magazine design. The programme also helps schools to better understand the workplace and to prepare students for future career decisions. IPC gains access to potential future employees and the opportunity to nurture the company’s future talent pool, and art editors are able to pass on their knowledge and develop their own skills.
