At Cromehurst, we offer both in school and out of school Work Experience opportunities.
Our in school work experience program is called Lyons Link. Our senior students engage in work skills that will prepare them for some job opportunities post-school.
Taking part in on-the-job learning and getting experience in different workplaces is a great way to prepare for life after school.
Why is workplace learning important?
Workplace learning gives your child the chance to:
- learn more about career options
- get direct experience in the workplace, and
- practice the skills needed to pursue goals when they leave school.
There are apportunities for out of school work experience placements for our students. These placements meet their needs and give them a better opportunity to succeed. For example, students may do work experience for a short amount of time one day a week and gradually add more time, giving them more confidence and building on their skills.
At Cromehurst, we are lucky to have partnerships with local post-school job centers where students have the opportunity to go for short periods to experience work in real life situations.
