Celebrating Work Experience Week
Last month, our Year 10 students took part in Amery Hill’s first Work Experience Week for many years – and what a success it was!
We want to say a huge thank you to all the parents, carers, and employers who supported our students and made these incredible opportunities possible. Our students completed placements in a wide range of industries, including accountancy, kitchen design, broking and underwriting in the London insurance market, engineering, sports coaching, manufacturing, graphic design, air traffic control systems, fire and rescue, publishing, scientific research, and architectural design – to name just a few!
Throughout the week, students reflected on what they had learnt:
· “Getting real life experience”
· “Meeting new people and learning new skills”
· “Learning pathways into law”
· “Insight into how the real world works”
· “Provided opportunity for interesting experiences”
A special thank you also to Queen Mary’s College, who supported the week, giving students the chance to develop their soft skills while working alongside college staff. We are extremely grateful for their support.
If you or your organisation would like to get involved in offering a work placement to our students in the future, we would love to hear from you! Please contact us at careersadmin@ameryhill.school.
