•Students will not come to school on this day and instead will gain an experience of the workplace, by shadowing an employee.

 

•They can shadow family members in their workplace or can look to organise a one-day placement with an employer of your choice.

 

•They will be completing a number of activities after this experience as part of their Form Time programme, in order to reflect upon their placement and to think about their future pathways.

Why?

Gatsby Benchmark 6

•Every student should have first-hand experiences of the workplace through work visits, work shadowing and/or work experience to help their exploration of career opportunities, and expand their networks.

•By the age of 16, every student should have had at least one experience of a workplace, additional to any part-time jobs they may have.

They have a few weeks to organise this.
