We have developed a new model for work experience which aims to provide a diverse and engaging programme for young people and one that is sustainable for arts and creative industries organisations. Working within the current school 5 day format, we have created a shared Creative Industries placement, where organisations offer a taster day for a group of 8 young people, for 4 days and on the Friday each will offer 2 students a mentoring day. This experience will be recognised through issuing an open digital badge to the young person which provides rich information on the skills developed through the placement.
