Virtual Work Experience Week Starts Today

Posted: 15th June 2020

We have organised a fabulous programme for pupils which incorporates a series of immersive career webinar sessions with top employers and a range of stimulating activities to help you better understand yourself and relate these to future careers.

The aim of this programme is to help pupils think about their future career; the skills they would need to develop as they progress through School and beyond, and to explore the roles and organisations that might suit their talents, interests and values.

This Virtual Work Experience Week includes:

  • A series of immersive career webinar sessions with top employers
  • A range of stimulating activities to help pupils better understand themselves and relate these to future careers
  • A special work experience project to work on independently or with their friends and which involves selecting a role in what would be their ideal company to work for, and then producing a campaign to recruit the most suitable person to join their company.

We have a fantastic range of speakers taking part that will be covering the following working areas:

  • Accountancy and Real Estate Finance
  • Banking and Finance
  • Beauty Industry
  • Dentistry
  • Economist
  • Engineering and Commercial Careers in Energy
  • Film and Entertainment
  • Human Resources
  • Interview Skills
  • Law/Barrister
  • Management Consultancy
  • Marketing, Brand Management and Communications
  • Medical Law
  • Medicine
  • Online Assessments
  • Performing Arts
  • Presentation Skills
  • Property
  • Psychology
  • Research Science/Technology
  • Speech and Language Therapy
  • TV and Broadcast Media
  • TV Production, Design and Apprenticeships
  • Values and Behaviours

We hope that this week will provide our pupils with valuable knowledge and skills as well as a key insight into the working world and the abilities they would need to develop at School in order to most benefit them in their preferred working field.
