Work Experience Process

Here at Fortem, we don’t leave anyone behind so to ensure the best positive experience possible, placements can be adapted to suit each individual’s need(s), including additional support for those with Moderate Learning Difficulties (MLD). A clear understanding of outcomes is agreed pre-placement with each student, school, parent or guardian.

“I’ve really enjoyed learning the different types of jobs that I would be doing. The work is very practical and hands-on, which suits me a lot better. If being at school isn’t for you, like it wasn’t for me, learning on the job and doing practical work as part of a foundation course is really great.”
