Year 10 Work Experience Students in Primary Schools

For the last 3, and the next 1 week, we have had at least 1, usually 2 Year 10 students in school (Primary) on Work experience for a week. These students have come from 3 different schools. Nobody from the comps have come to see the students, asked about them by phone or given any indication that the comp is interested in them at all. I've completed the end of week assessment books and given them back to the students concerned. It seems to me the students are just being placed with us at a difficult time of the year to get them to attend school, and sadly some of them (most in fact) don't really want to be with us at all.
I'm tempted to raise the supervision / motivation issue with the comps involved, but I'm sure it would not go down very well. Is my experience a typical one, or are we unlucky ?
