From the start of year ten, pupils take part in a programme of work experience arranged by their schools and Hounslow Education Business Partnership. The aim is to learn about the world of work and to develop an idea of the key skills needed in the working environment.
Pupils or parents with questions or comments regarding work experience placements are advised to contact their school and speak to the work experience coordinator.
