KS4 – Careers and Employment opportunities

 

As part of the KS4 curriculum, our KS4 learners enjoy learning all about the world of work.

On entry into KS4, learners undertake a career aspirations interview that identifies those employment sectors they might be interested in. Each leaner is then offered a bespoke work-placed package based on their own preferences; which encompasses experiences within both year 10 and 11, and supports our Careers curriculum and the Gatsby Benchmarks.

This year, we are very pleased to be working with the following employer partners who give up their time to support our learners in various ways; including delivering workshop sessions to pupils in school or offering work-placed programmes delivered in the workplace:

Booths Supermarket, Chorley – Retail sector

The Life Centre Chorley Hospital – Health and Social Care Sector

Busy Bodies Nursery, Euxton – Education Sector

Astley Park School (Primary classes) – Education Sector
