T-Level Employability Skills Sessions

This resource contains three employability sessions aimed at Year 10 students in secondary school through to Year 12 students embarking on Further Education. With the introduction of the up and coming T-Levels in 2020 and onwards, schools and colleges now need to prepare our young people for the world and work more than ever before and so these sessions aim to best prepare students. Session one “Finding a Work Placement” is to help students approach employers by themselves and how to dress appropriately, what to say and do etc before they start their initail placement. Session two “Confidence in the Work Place” is to highlight a students skill set, strengths and weaknesses and what a placement will consist of to develop weaker skill sets. Session three “Placement Review” is for students who have completed a CV or need to start from scratch writing a CV and shows students how best to make use of their work placement experience, reflecting on their time on a work placement and to consider plans for the future. Alongside this resource is an “Employability Skills Booklet” that allows students to track their sessions by making notes and writing down their ideas.
