WORK EXPERIENCE  

Work Experience notes have been distributed via your home room to all Year 10 students. Please read and discuss with your parents/guardian and if you wish to participate please return your signed note to me.

 

Participation in work experience prepares students for the demands and expectations of the working world. It helps students make informed career decisions by assessing their aptitudes and interests, and exploring potential careers. It can improve students' maturity, confidence and self-reliance and develop useful skills such as communication, team working, planning and organising, timekeeping, problem solving.
