Warner Bros opportunity – Year 13
We are delighted to offer Year 13 students the opportunity to attend a Careers Day with our Warner Bros. CrewHQ partners. This event will celebrate the release of ‘Wonka’ on Tuesday 5th December and will take place at The Soho Hotel in London. Students will have the opportunity to preview the screening of the film, take part in a follow up Q&A session with a panel and attend breakout sessions to learn about the different roles in the industry. Lunch and all refreshments will be provided.
The event is aimed at all students who are interested in pursuing careers in the film and TV production industry, particularly those who are considering the apprenticeship or employment route. Please note that we are not able to accept applications from students who attended the Creative and Media Career Insight Day on Friday 26th May at the Warner Bros. Studio, or the event on Friday 14th July at the BAFTA Headquarters in Central London to celebrate the release of Barbie.
As with our previous Career Insight days, applications submitted by schools (not by individual students) will be considered. To apply for your student(s), please complete the information within the application form by Wednesday 15th November, and we will confirm if your application has been successful by Friday 17th November.
We welcome applications from all Year 13 students, but we will be prioritising students from disadvantaged and under-represented backgrounds. Please ensure that all the information on the form is included, as in order to ensure the safety and welfare of the students on the day, and to adhere to safeguarding guidelines, we will not be able to accept any applications if this is not complete.
