At Oasis Academy, we are committed to equipping our students with the skills, knowledge, and practical experience they need to thrive in their chosen careers. Through engaging projects and hands-on learning opportunities, we prepare students for success in higher education and the world of work.
Year 10 Work Experience
Our Year 10 students will participate in work experience during the week of 19th-23rd May. This provides an early opportunity for students to develop key employability skills and gain insight into the professional world. Students are encouraged to find their own placements, allowing them to explore their interests and build independence. For those who need additional support, we have partnered with Inspire, an organisation that helps secure work experience placements for some of our Year 10 students, ensuring they have access to high-quality opportunities that align with their aspirations.
Year 12 Work Experience
All Year 12 students participate in a one-week work placement during the summer term. This invaluable experience allows them to explore their career interests, develop key employability skills, and build a competitive edge for university applications and future job opportunities.
Diverse Placement Opportunities
Our students have gained experience with a wide range of prestigious organisations and industries, including:
- Corporate: KPMG, Barclays
- Transport & Events: ExCel Centre, London City Airport
- Museums & Heritage: Brunel Museum, Maritime Museum
- Healthcare: NHS, veterinary practices
