Students will be responsible for arranging learning opportunities in the workplace. Various models of work based learning will be possible through agreement with the School Placement Co-ordinator.
Arrangements for learning opportunities will commence one year before the placement module. There will be timetable sessions throughout the year in which students will have the opportunity to discuss the progress of these arrangements with the Placement Co-ordinator.
