Jessica, a Year 10 student at St Edmund’s, completed her work experience placement at Wightwick Hall School 7th – 11th July. She had the opportunity to support students with complex needs and built wonderful relationships with both the students and the staff.

The placement was so succesful, Jessica received a glowing reference from the class teacher highligting her commitment, reliability, creativity and initiative.

This placement demonstrated how important work experience can be to students and the successes they can bring.  Jessica clearly had the opportunity to develop what it would be like to be employed and has shown that working with SEND complex needs students will be a career path to consider beyond St Edmund’s.

Well done Jessica. You truly embraced the work experience opportunity and demonstrated how vaulable they can be.

Thank you to Wightwick Hall School for giving Jessica the opportunity.
