Careers Fair

May 24, 2024

Giving young people an insight into the realities of working life and the range of careers that lie ahead of them is a central strand in the preparation we give them for life beyond school. On Thursday we hosted a Careers Fair for Years 10 and 12 which set out to do just that. With keynote speakers focusing on the charitable sector and the intricacies of establishing one’s own business, and representatives from the fields of law, dentistry, product design engineering, pharmaceuticals, the armed forces and so many more, this really was an invaluable opportunity for our students.
