A group of West Lothian school pupils are taking their first steps into the world of work via the Career Ready programme.
Career Ready is a two-year programme designed to empower young people in S5/S6 to kick-start their chosen career through a series of authentic workplace experiences and a network of support.
This year will see a total of 46 students on West Lothian Council’s Career Ready Programme and all will benefit from a four-week-long, paid, internship across a range of national and local employers.
