Bacon’s College work experience happens at the end of November in Year 10 and lasts for one week.Students are encouraged to find their own placements in fields that they have an interest in. The attached form should be completed as soon as possible. If students have not found a placement by the deadline, a place will be found for them but may not be in their field of interest.
