Working With L’Oreal
Students have been working with L’Oreal to create a pitch for the products of the future. They were asked to come up with ideas for the next big thing in the beauty world and then present their ideas back to employees at L’Oreal!
Interacting With The Pros
Whilst taking part in the work experience, students got the opportunity to talk to industry professionals and ask all the questions they needed answers to!
Vonetta in year 12 said “My favourite part was speaking to Sally Brooks, former L’Oreal employee, who has started her own successful hair business. She gave us an insight into how she started in her career and what steps she took. Sally also recommended a documentary called “The Journey to My Destination” which is about gaining a career.
Gaining New Skills
Here is an example of the work that came out of the work experience opportunity. Vonetta said it helped grow her communication skills, teamwork skills, confidence and decision making.
Prepared For The Industry
Vonetta said, “It has helped me become more knowledgeable and more confident with getting into the media industry and feel even more prepared than before.“
We are committed to bridging the gap between college and the workplace for our young people.
Work Experience is one of the ways we do this.
