Work Experience
Our Careers Education, Information, Advice & Guidance (CEIAG) Programme involves students in a wide range of activities and opportunities to support them in thinking ahead to the world of work. Some of these opportunities occur in the normal curriculum and some outside by means of extra-curricular and enrichment activities.
In Year 8, students can arrange to spend a day at work with their parent/carer as part of the Take Your Child to Work Scheme, those who remain in school take part in a variety of activities that explore the skills required in the world of work.
In Year 10, students take part in a work experience programme where they spend time as employees in the real work place. In the past, students have worked in such areas as the aerospace industry, schools and nurseries, hairdressers, retail, banking and veterinary practices.
More important and relevant information will be posted on the school website during the year as and when it is available. However, the links below may be of use to you and your child in preparation for the decisions they have to make in the coming years.

In addition, we have recently been fortunate to receive some free resources from a company called ‘How2Become’. Please see their website link where you can find out more about them and the services they provide for schools, parents/carers and student.
All work experience will be managed and monitored through the Unifrog platform.
