Gateway provides long term structured workplace learning for Year 12 and 13 students in any chosen career.

Students are given the opportunity to test drive their career choice while gaining valuable real-life experiences. The Gateway programme gives students the confidence to make a smoother transition from school into the workforce.

Students on the Gateway programme undertake work experience one day a week for a sustained period of time, or complete a block placement. Here, they gain valuable insight into the ‘real world’ and have the opportunity to see if their chosen career path is really for them. The work placement is complemented by industry-related book work and work appropriate courses. The students have the opportunity to achieve 20+ industry based and NCEA (accredited) credits.

If you are interested in Gateway, want to know more, or are keen to host a student please contact Mrs Reiha in the Careers office.
