Work Experience

To improve competitiveness, it is vital for education and business to work together to ensure that young people are better prepared for the world of work, with the necessary skills and motivation.

One important way in which employers can establish links with their local schools is through the provision of work experience placements. Work experience offers many benefits and opportunities. For students, it can enhance their knowledge and understanding and better prepare them for the world of work. For employers, it can provide the opportunity to help students develop an insight into the skills and attitudes required by business and to raise their awareness of career opportunities within the organisation visited.

 If you are able to offer work experience placements please contact us for further information.
