The work experience student app is now live on both the Apple app store and the Google play store. Students/Parents can find the app by searching for ‘Connect Placement Manager’.
Changing Education have informed us of an issue on the play store with reference to using the search facility to find the app. However, you can download the App by visiting the following link https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.chent
An opportunity will be provided in school for all Year 10 and 12 students to download the app therefore it is not a requirement for this to be completed at home.
