International British School of Bucharest
operates an annual work experience programme for the secondary
school, and this is the only comprehensive model for any
school in Bucharest.
Work Experience is an important part of education for
employability which allows students to learn about
the world of work in
a "real life" working situation. It is intended
to give a student an experience of working life and the key
skills needed in the workplace rather than a chance to try
out an occupation they may want to follow. All students,
from those taking the fewest examinations to those who will
take degrees, need real knowledge of the world of work.
At present we have links with 20 leading
companies from different sectors of industry including
Barnet McCall and
Euroweb. The participant students will be awarded with
a “Work Experience Diploma” which is a major
asset for their Portfolio of Achievements. Also, they will
receive Letters of Recommendation from the partner companies.
These meet the requirements and weigh substantially for
their future admission into strong universities like Cambridge
and Oxford.
