Purple Oaks Academy

Work experience

Our students have enjoyed a range of valuable work experience opportunities, including grooming and caring for horses, helping with painting and decorating workshops, and gaining experience in library settings. These activities provide an introduction to the world of work, helping students develop important skills such as responsibility, teamwork, communication, time management and following instructions. Through these real-life experiences, students build confidence, independence and a greater understanding of different career pathways and workplaces.
