Simran Kaur

I am a motivated, responsible, and hardworking 16-year-old school leaver who has recently completed my GCSEs at Ormiston Forge Academy. Through volunteering in community settings and completing work experience in a primary school, I have developed strong communication, teamwork, and organisational skills. I am friendly, reliable, and eager to gain employment where I can continue to develop my skills while making a positive contribution to the workplace.
