main content Work experience for school pupils

Work experience is a placement on an employer's premises during which a pupil carries out a range of tasks or duties, more or less as would an employee, but with the emphasis on the learning aspects of the experience.

Eligibility

  • Employers who have employers' liability insurance, public liability insurance and appropriate health and safety arrangements can provide work experience.
  • Pupils in their last two years of compulsory schooling can be offered a placement organised by their school as part of an LEA approved scheme.

Details

The Education Business Partnership team in Bromley offers:

  • advice for employers about providing placements;
  • support and guidance for schools regarding the organisation and management of a work experience programme.
