Careers Fair 2025

March 20, 2025

On Wednesday, we hosted the Aldenham School Careers Fair for students in Years 9-13. The event featured around 65 exhibitors from a variety of industries, including finance, banking, fashion, sports, government, and politics. Over 120 students attended a talk on apprenticeships, while more than 100 students participated in a Law Panel Q&A, which included five expert panellists discussing property, sport and entertainment, and litigation and commercial law. Additionally, over 60 students attended the Engineering Panel Q&A, where topics like design, civil, and mechanical engineering were explored.

Students also had the opportunity to receive personalised advice on their CVs at the CV workshop, business guidance at the Business Workshop, and tailored advice for our international students. We were also pleased to welcome students from Queens School to join us. For those looking for a more relaxed experience, a careers table was available where students could explore their interests. It was a fantastic afternoon full of learning, guidance, and inspiration for all involved.
