A huge thank you to all the organisations which supported our Year 10 Work Experience programme this year. A total of 168 placements took place across 132 companies, spanning 15 counties - and even two continents! The feedback from employers has been extremely positive, with many highlighting the valuable contribution our pupils made during their time with them. Since returning, pupils have been reflecting on their experiences, developing their understanding of key workplace skills, and considering their future career pathways.
If your company would like to get involved next year, attend our Careers Fair, support mock interviews, or contribute in any other way, we would love to hear from you. Please do get in touch with our Head of Careers, Jenny Manning, on jam@strs.org.uk.
