We're thrilled to announce the re-launch of our Work Experience for Schools programme for 2023.
For more than 10 years, Cheltenham Festivals has offered work experience for students. And now we're excited to be re-opening our doors once again to students in Year 10 and Year 12.
Students will get an exclusive, behind-the-scenes peek at how Festivals and our year-round participatory events are put together, as well as spending 1:1 time with each department and completing a mixture of creative and administrative tasks. Take a look at our information pack to find out more about this year's Work Experience for Schools programme.
“It was everything I had expected times a million. It was the best week I have had in months - so many new things learnt and done. The people of Cheltenham Festivals were so warm, welcoming and lovely – this week was incredible.”
