Information for Local Employers

Serlby Park Academy is at the heart of the Harworth and Bircotes community, and we are always striving to provide our students with meaningful experiences to help them succeed in the future. In order to help prepare our students for the world of work we would like to partner with local businesses, community organisations and individuals to inspire, motivate and inform students of all the wonderful opportunities available to them.

Local Employers
