All placements will need to be added to Unifrog before they are confirmed by the Academy.Â
Students will need to complete a ‘Student Initial Form’ adding all of the relevant information there. Â
This can be found using the following steps:
Placements
‘Add a new placement’
Complete the Student Initial Form – this will ask for the employer’s details. This will set off a chain reaction of actions:Â
Employer confirmation
Parental confirmation
School confirmatio
This will be sent to the employer to confirm and upload the necessary insurance and health and safety certificates.
Once this has been completed, parents and carers will receive confirmation request form before finally the school will confirm all details.
It is important that all placement details are added correctly by each student to allow the placement to be confirmed.
Students can also use the Apprenticeship Tool to search for local companies who they could approach regarding placements
The great feature of the apprenticeships tool is that you can filter by various elements, such as start date. This means that you can look ahead for apprenticeships starting at the right time for you!
