This week's spotlight is shining on our 6th form pupils who have been embracing the world of work. Ben has started this term in a new work placement within a charity shop. He is enjoying all the responsibility and getting sections tidied up and organised. Sarah, Ben's manager thinks he is a great addition to the team!
Ben – Yr13
Jack has changed his placement this term due to a change in work days… Although he misses his old placement, his new work place rewards his hard work with hot chocolate and toast! The staff at the Café believe that he is doing a fantastic job.
Jack – Yr13
Kayla has been so successful on her work placement that she has been given a thank you card and a gift card to treat herself, well done Kayla!
The lads have shown some fantastic customer service and responsibility and I have had the great pleasure of seeing them exceed in work over the past few weeks. Every placement I have been to have all given amazing feedback and how much they enjoy having them in their business.
