| Work Experience represents an opportunity for pupils, in their final year at school, to: |
|
- explore the world of work.
|
|
- See how very different the workplace is compared to school
|
|
- See what students are good at in a practical/pressured environment
|
|
- Apply the skills the students have learnt at school, so recognising their relevance
|
|
- See the everyday reality about a chosen career - Forensic Science is not usually carried out in the plush buildings of 'CSI Miami'
|
|
- Show universities about their commitment to particular career choices.
|
|
- Experience positive feedback from a non-school professional who can provide an unbiased view of their potential in a working environment.
|
|
|
- Develop self confidence and maturity so that when they return to the Sixth Form they are better equipped and motivated to tackle subjects in depth.
