At Rosneath we want to help our pupils not just now but in the future, one way is to help them understand the world of work. Developing the young workforce through different activities, visits and speakers. We try to provide them with a wide range of different jobs and careers hopefully inspiring them to pursue their own interests and passions into their working life. We also like to help the children see that the things they do and learn in school are all skills for their future.
