For Students and Parents
If interested in Work Experience please speak with your school coordinator. We will always endeavour to accommodate the selected dates (ensuring at least 1-month notice is given), but unfortunately, this may not be possible in some instances. We will work with your school on an alternative if possible.
Before starting you (along with your parents and school) must complete the relevant paperwork or online modules provided.
