Senior School Careers Week

During the third week of March, our Senior School shone a spotlight on careers. Pupils spent time exploring their future pathways and learning about the wide variety of careers available to them.

Each morning began with a 15-minute focus on careers, with every year group exploring a different theme. These sessions ranged from considering the breadth of career opportunities to looking at GCSE options, post-16 pathways and work experience.

A highlight of the week was our Careers Carousel, where parents kindly came in to speak about their professions, including roles in medicine, academia, the civil service and finance.

Teachers also led career spotlights within their subjects, helping pupils to see how their learning connects to real-world opportunities. In addition, we welcomed a University of Cambridge engineering undergraduate, who spoke in assembly about the wide range of possibilities within a career in engineering.
