Wessex Water Work Experience Week June 2022
St Brendan's students recently took part in a Career Insight week at Wessex Water and gained a first-hand understanding of the construction, engineering, and science behind the corporation as they completed a week of work experience developed by Bristol Future Talent Partnerships.
Here from Matthew who took part in the Wessex Water Work Experience.
Bishop Fleming Work Experience June 2022
Back in the summer, some of our students have had the opprotunity to gain accounting experience with Bishop Fleming.
They have practiced different roles within the company, engaged in real client meetings, took part in several workshops including Cv writing and Interview prep and finally completed their placement with a presentation to the members of staff.
"It's great work experience to get realistic insight on what it's like to be an accountant. It's definitely given me a detailed understanding as to what I want my specialty to be in."
