• Apply curriculum subjects to the workplace
• Enhance and enrich the learning experience

Work-related learning opportunities include:

• Work shadowing
• Site and/or school visits
• Workshops
• Projects

• Industry Days
• Practical experience
• Taster event
• Work simulations

If you would like to be involved in any of the above activities we would be delighted to hear from you:

As a single focused point of contact for both schools and employers we bring education together with business and the local community for mutual benefit.  We can help you build beneficial relationships with local industry that support the curriculum and are mutually beneficial.
