Welcome to the first cohort of OHCAT interns

We are thrilled to welcome our new DFN Project SEARCH Supported Interns to Orchard Hill College Academy Trust.

The interns are settling in brilliantly and are excited to begin their job rotations across a variety of departments, including IT, marketing and events, finance, learning support, reception, and administration. These placements offer valuable hands-on experience and are a key part of their journey toward employment and independence.

Our DFN Project SEARCH Supported Internships are life-changing programmes that empower young people with special educational needs and disabilities (SEND) to develop essential workplace skills in real-world settings. We’re proud to be part of this initiative and look forward to supporting our interns progress on their course.

A huge welcome and well done to all our interns – we can’t wait to see everything they achieve!
