Year 12 students will attend work experience from
1st – 5th July 2024
All Year students will achieve their Blue Enrichment Award by taking part in Work Experience in July. Students will find their own work placements, and use Unifrog to track their own progress and keep a record of important health and safety documents. The Post 16 team and our Careers Advisor, will support any student with finding a placement.
The cost for a student to take part is a £10 admin fee, payable through Arbor.
We believe strongly that work experience is of benefit to the students, it will encourage independence, develop confidence as well as giving a taster of the world of work.
The timeline from now until July is:
