Jersey College for Girls launches Female Leadership Programme with KPMG

Jersey College for Girls (JCG) in partnership with KPMG has launched a new Female Leadership Programme for Sixth Form students.

The programme was developed and will be led by Gaëlle Deschamps of G Force to help students increase their confidence, identify their strengths, understand the skills of leadership and build their sense of themselves as leaders.

Carl Howarth, Principal, emphasised the importance of this programme: “Our students will shape the society in which they live and work, and a critical aspect of this is the need to bridge the leadership gap. We are immensely grateful to KPMG for supporting the initiative not only through funding but also through mentoring and essential skills workshops for our students.”

Theola Byrne, Director, Audit, said: “KPMG in the Crown Dependencies is delighted to be supporting this new female leadership programme in JCG. Our Purpose is to ‘Inspire confidence and empower change’ and we believe this programme is going to do just this for students at JCG. We wish all the students involved the best on their journey to be the leaders of tomorrow and look forward to working with the students and JCG.”
