EMPLOYERS including Nestle, Aviva and Network Rail are all helping pupils at Millthorpe School in York to prepare for the working world.

More than 200 Year 10 students had mock interviews and talks on CVs and job applications on Wednesday, from employers and other organisations including the Royal Navy and Askham Bryan College.

The school’s Tim Gillbanks said: “Preparing our young people better for work experience is a priority for the school this year. Having support from major employers and the valuable information they bring will benefit them not just with their work experience, but equip them better in future years.”
