Y10 Work Experience
In the summer term of Year 10, we invite all Year 10 students to find their own Work Experience Placement.
This year, the work experience placements for Y10 will take place on Monday, 7th and Tuesday, 8th July 2025.
Why Work Experience?
Work experience provides a first-hand experience of what the world of work is like. It will give the students the chance to try something new, possibly in a career they might be interested in pursuing after their studies.
Finding your own work experience placement is all part of the experience! We encourage your independence and maturity to make contact with potential employers and arranging the details for your placement.
By completing a work experience placement, you will become more confident and make new memories! You will develop your key “employability skills”, such as communication and problem solving.
Maybe your placement will be in a career that might interest you, maybe not, but whatever the placement, you will learn more about yourself and what sort of career you might be interested in. You might make new contacts for future employment or training opportunities. You will leave with a reference which you can use to help you with college and job applications.
