As part of BLT’s newly reinvigorated Corporate & Social Responsibility Programme, this morning we visited the Raine’s Foundation School in Bethnal Green, London in order to undertake practice interviews with year 12 pupils (aged 16 – 17 year olds). The aim was to give students a true interview experience based on their pre-prepared ‘mini’ cvs in order to help them apply for higher education or employment.
A truly enjoyable morning talking to the pupils about their studies, aspirations and hobbies was had by all. Catriona, Michelle, Dave, Becky and I would like to thank the pupils and staff at the Raine’s Foundation School for their warm welcome and for their time, as well as to the staff at City Action and the Tower Hamlets Education Business Partnership charity for arranging this rewarding and inspirational experience.
