Work Experience Dates for 2009
The school encourages all year 10 students to participate in work experience. It is invaluable for students to investigate and sample an area of work that they have an interest in for the future.
This year , year 10 students will have the opportunity to do work experience for one week in any of the three term breaks. It is preferrable where possible that they select the April school holidays as this will provide the most benefit in terms of subject selection for year 11 which will take place during term two.

Week 2 Mon 20th April - Fri 24th April
