As part the most recent Careers Statutory Guidance, we are looking at increasing the opportunities for students in Years 7 to 9 to take part in experiences of the workplace. For the first time, our Year 9 students were invited to take part in the inaugural Take Your Child to Work Day.
Last Friday, over 100 of our Year 9 students accompanied their parents/carers and other family members into their workplace for the day to have their first experience of the world of work. Students were able to visit a huge range of different workplaces with lots of organisations where they had the opportunity to learn more about the world of work and how this links to school. We would like to thank all of the parents for providing the opportunity. In December, our Year 8 students will have the opportunity to experience the workplace as part of the trip to Beamish.
