We are so grateful for employers and volunteers giving time across the week to host groups, and also to volunteers who support every student with completing CVs and doing a mock interview and getting feedback.

We are also grateful for employers who also hosted students for a whole week, including Turner and Townsend, Quod, Boldyn, London Zoo and Arup. In addition, 4 students completed work experience at our Younger Years Site, supporting our nursery students.
