Teacher Work Experience Opportunities: Taking Learning to the Next Level
Teachers play a crucial role in shaping the minds of our students and preparing them for their future careers. To help us achieve this, we are excited to offer a unique opportunity for our staff to experience the world of work firsthand. Our Industry Day programme is designed to link subjects with their application in the workplace, providing adults with valuable insights into the world of business and industry.
