There are three types of apostrophe. The possessive apostrophe, to show that a letter is missing and to highlight a word or phrase, eg 'hasn't', doesn't', 'can't'. The possessive apostrophe would be used in a sentence such as 'The student's work was of a high standard' meaning the work of the student. However if you are using the word students in the plural form, it would be written 'students' work'.
