Telford students begin to prepare for life in the workplace

Around 70 local employers visited the school to put year 10 students through their paces in a series of job interview scenarios, giving them advice on interview techniques and content for their CVs.

Skybimi Tetteh has had her heart set on being a midwife since the age of nine. She is planning to take a T-Level in midwifery at Telford College, and completed her placement at Hollinswood primary school and nursery. “The whole thing has been a great experience,” she said. “The mock interviews were great for me, because now I know what is expected of me. I would have been stressing about that when I left school if we’d not had chance to do this.”

Julia Matos, who is interested in a surgical career, split her placement between two different employers – the police force, and a care home in Wellington.
