Work Experience
Students in Year 10 and above are offered the opportunity to gain direct work experience during their studies — a chance to build real-world skills and confidence outside the classroom.
Tailored to the student
Placements can be tailored to each student, drawing on local connections and other businesses affiliated with the school, so students get experience that's relevant to their own interests and goals.
Group work experience
We also offer group work experience, a more accessible option for students who benefit from taking part alongside their peers rather than in a one-to-one placement.
Animal Care
Students interested in tending to animals are welcome to pick Animal Care as an additional subject, gaining direct, hands-on experience at Creepy Claws.
What students do
Students get involved in the day-to-day care of the animals, including:
- Cleaning
- Feeding
- Learning more about the animals in their care
It's a chance for students to build responsibility and practical animal-care skills while learning about a genuinely wide range of species.
Multitrades
Students interested in developing a trade are welcome to travel to Goldwyn School to hone their craft across a range of different trades — from bricklaying to mechanics.
Why it matters
Multitrades gives students hands-on exposure to real trade skills and working environments, helping them explore practical career paths and build confidence in a hands-on, vocational setting.
