Post-16 pathways: From GCSE to HE
This guide was created by students, for students.
As part of our work experience preparation project, students from The Hewett Academy took the lead in exploring the world of work. They decided what topics they wanted to investigate, conducted their own research and visited a variety of workplaces to speak with employees about their experiences and workplace culture.
One of the key findings from our research was that asking questions is a great way to build confidence, learn new skills and make a positive impression during a placement. To help other students do just that, we created this guide containing useful questions to ask throughout a work experience placement.
