Thursday 21 March 2024 National Careers Week - 4th - 8th March 2024 The first week of March was National Careers Week and this year our Year 7’s were challenged to create a poster showing all of the jobs that are connected to producing a packet of crisps. Called “From Spud to Shelf” students watched a video on how crisps were made and then had to share their ideas of the jobs needed to create and sell the product. All of Year 7 worked really hard on their posters and it was a very close call on who the winner was but after much deliberation Lillie, Nina, Ava, Rehya and Saffiya (7CDA) pipped Kavan, Priscilla and Cyan (7HGH) to the post!

Wednesday 8 March 2023 Practice Interviews with Leicestershire Cares: February 2023 Leicestershire Cares runs a highly successful programme of interview techniques for KS4 students. Business volunteers deliver mock interviews with students in order to develop their confidence and the key skills needed to succeed at future interviews. We have been enthusiastic partners with Leicestershire Cares for many years and so we know first-hand how much these experiences help our students to grow their confidence for facing the wider world beyond school. In the current year, as we are still impacted by the Covid-19 pandemic, we have run these interviews remotely.
