Case Study Information

Horbury High School, Wakefield

Horbury High School, Wakefield

In partnership with our client, Wakefield & District Housing and the other constructor partners, we supported Horbury High School in Wakefield by running a construction awareness and assessment day for year 10 students.

The aim of the day was to help the students engage with construction companies and gain a better understanding of the industry in order to assist them with a construction training programme the school aims to run for year 10 students later in the year.

The structure of the day consisted of various activities including:

  • 10 minute presentation by each partner
  • Interviews and feedback for each student
  • Teambuilding Exercises
  • Construction Games
  • Short presentation by the students

The school has also identified a piece of land to be developed by the students into a community garden, which will develop additional construction, landscaping and horticultural skills.

During the construction training programme, Bullock will assist with work placement opportunities in order to further develop the students' knowledge and ability to gain employment within the construction industry.
