A pair of college students are swapping their classrooms for the office as part of a four-week placement.

The pupils, who study at East Norfolk Sixth Form College, will be immersing themselves in accountancy at Lovewell Blake's branches in Great Yarmouth and Lowestoft.

Aiden Lambert, from Great Yarmouth, is spending his placement at the firm’s office on North Quay.

He said: “I am looking forward to putting what I have learnt into practice. 

"Spending time in a real accountancy firm will also help me learn how to act in a workplace, working with other people, and to experience the business environment.”

Saffron Hinson, from Lowestoft, is spending her placement at Lovewell Blake’s office in Quay View Business Park.

She said: “Already I have been struck by the inviting and friendly environment. My perception of accountancy offices were that they were very quiet and ‘heads-down’, but nothing could be further from the truth."

Both are studying ‘T’ Levels which are equivalent to three A-levels but focus on vocational skills.
