Work Experience

Work Experience is an opportunity for young people (usually in years 10, 11 and 6th form) to sample the work environment for a period of one or two weeks. It can help young people understand the relevance of particular subjects and enable them to make more informed decisions about their future. It can also encourage students to aspire to higher levels of achievement.
