Cabot Learning Federation (CLF) Post 16 students are gaining invaluable hands-on experience thanks to a groundbreaking partnership with Not Impossible, an organisation that connects young talent with busy employers through micro placements designed to promote social mobility.
Through this collaboration, CLF Post 16 students have the opportunity to participate in meaningful work experience placements, giving them practical insights into various industries and fields.
Recently, a group of students visited the Invivo Healthcare lab, where they explored cutting-edge research into microbiomes and discovered more about advancements in health science.
Work experience is a cornerstone of the CLF Post 16 curriculum, ensuring every student develops the skills, confidence, and knowledge to stand out when applying for universities, apprenticeships, or entering the workforce.
Alison Ashman, Vice Principal for CLF Post 16, said: “At CLF Post 16, we’re committed to equipping our students with opportunities that prepare them for the future.
“This partnership with Not Impossible allows our young people to engage with real-world employers and explore industries they are passionate about, broadening their horizons and driving their ambitions.”
By participating in these placements, students not only gain critical experience but also make meaningful connections with employers, helping to bridge the gap between education and the professional world.
