Work Experience

As part of the Careers Education and Guidance programme at Tibshelf Community School, all Year 10 students are expected to take part in a compulsory work experience programme with an employer. The aim is to help them gain a deeper understanding and appreciation of the world of work and all that it entails.

All Year 10 students will take part in work experience between Monday 17th July – 21st July 2023 

This is a superb chance for our students to build confidence and develop their employability skills. We always strongly advise students to choose a placement that is in an occupational area that they are interested in as this will either confirm for them that this is a career that they wish to pursue or alternatively may confirm that this is not for them. As always we will be competing with other schools for placements during this week, and therefore it is essential that students secure a placement as soon as possible

The following letter and key documents will help parents and carers understand the Tibshelf Community School work experience programme and may also suggest ways you can help your child find a placement.

Any queries about work experience can be sent to: workexperience@tibshelf.derbyshire.sch.uk
