Jobs and Work Experience
Looking for a job or some work experience?
Work Experience
Sometimes in Year 10 or 11 you may have the opportunity to have a work experience placement. This will allow you to experience first hand what the world of work is like. Work experience placements are normally organised by a member of staff in your school, however, you may be interested in gaining work experience during school holidays.
If there's somewhere you'd be interested in getting a work experience placement at, write them a letter of application. Connexions can help you with this.
