Students gain valuable insight into the world of work through placements linked to their personal interests and aspirations as closely as possible.
Opportunities include both on-site and community-based roles such as:
• Gardening Assistant at Helmsley Walled Garden
• Animal Care Assistant at the Birds of Prey Centre
• Shop Assistant in local charity shops
• Stable Assistant at a local Horse Yard
• In-house jobs (recycling, library support and cooking staff lunches)
• And more..
Some students remain in one placement for the full academic year to build confidence, commitment and work-based skills. Others rotate between placements to explore different career options.
Enterprise students run real-world projects such as staff lunches, craft sales and the school market stall — developing teamwork, communication and business awareness.
We are extremely grateful to our work experience partners who provide work experience placements and support our students in their career journey.
