Career Evening

All senior students are expected to attend especially Year 12 and Year 13 students but students from all year levels are welcome, as it will soon be time to choose their options for next year. If they have a career goal this becomes a much easier process.

Students should wear tidy mufti and parents are very welcome to attend.

Copies of the programme can be downloaded by following the link below. You need to bring your programme with you to the evening.

Five Houses are being used and the topics are mostly theme grouped e.g. all the Art and Design courses are in Upham House. Each 25 minute classroom session is repeated three times. There is a 15 minute time slot between each session where you can talk to people with stands in the commons or spend most of your time in the commons talking with providers’ one on one.

There are representatives from Universities, Polytechnics, accredited Private Providers, employers and the Armed Forces, as well as information about apprenticeships and cadetships which many students should be considering.

Please do not bring your car, as speakers need to park close by since they have laptops and information packs to bring with them.

Keep your mind open to new ideas as there are many careers which you may not have thought about but will be in huge demand in the future such as Computer Science and Information Technology. If you have been to Engineering and Medicine sessions before, please choose something different, as there are so many possible pathways and opportunities to find out about.
