We believe that Careers Fairs are an invaluable opportunity for our pupils to meet employers and find out about different jobs and businesses all in one place. The fairs are interactive, allowing our pupils to sample the products made, complete challenges and ask questions of their own.
The fairs are also a valuable opportunity for us to build strong relationships with local employers.
At the fair we were able to give the pupils the chance to meet with: air hostesses from Virgin, estate agents, ASDA management, a local catering firm, a headteacher, a chiropractor, the local GP, and a vet.
I was surprised ti find that almost all of the jobs required you to get extra qualifications. You have to do well at school and then go to college or university.

This year's Careers Fairs also linked with the More Able career workshops that we have run in partnership with Broadford that have included visits from PWC & Clifford Chance.

I really like the idea of becoming an estate agent. You have to make sure that you value the house correctly. We learnt that the estate agent has to use measuring skills and be good at communicating with the buyer and seller.

This fair was a great contribution that allows our pupils to be prepared for the next stage of their education, training and/or employment. We believe that our learners need to develop workplace skills that will contribute to their economic wellbeing.
