It is a planned morning event and we are looking forward to providing the year 11 students with a wide range of employers, further education and higher education providers to inform, educate and guide the students in giving them a wider understanding and aspirational outlook on their progression into post 16 further education, employment and later on higher education and career options available to them. In addition to the year 11 students, the careers fair will be open to the year 13 students who will be dropping in to the fair throughout the morning around their lessons to find out more and ask questions regarding their own post 18 plans.

Please find the details of the event below, and I look forward to your RSVP.
