Year 12 students had their sessions tailored around careers, which was a very informative afternoon teaching students about how to write the perfect CV. They also looked at their own ‘personal brand’ and how they present themselves to employers. Then finally year 12 students looked at money and finance when entering the world of work.
Our year 13 students had an informative talk about applying to university and apprenticeships, completing personal statements, UCAS applications and apprenticeship applications.
As well as our Sixth Form Open Evening, we are also hosting Open Mornings! The dates for our open mornings are Thursday 30th November and Thursday 7th December, both starting at 9:30am-11:30am.
