Transition Year Placements

Choosing what to be when you 'grow up' is a big decision. Our TY students experience the reality of the working world in a fun and supportive environment, helping you decide what you want, or do not want to do in college and adult life. We welcome students all during the year, providing “real” work and where possible ensure that you are placed in an area of interest to you.
