On 10th May a group of professionals came to speak to year 12
On Wednesday 10th May 2023, some of our pupils in year 12 were fortunate to hear from professionals that work for Pinsent Mason’s law firm and British International Investment. These professionals had a range of careers, wealth of knowledge and expertise amongst them from a Chief Legal Officer, Legal Counsel and Investment Executive who all worked for British International Investment, we also had an Executive Partner and Investment Funds Solicitor who worked for Pinsent Masons. Volunteering professionals were rotating around stations to provide insight to each group of pupils. Each session with professionals lasted 8 minutes and involved the employers sharing a short presentation on themselves, their organisation, routes into employment and the kind of skills needed in the sector. There was an opportunity for pupils to ask a couple of questions to all employers at each station. This was such a meaningful, rewarding and impactful opportunity for our students to participate in and has hopefully given them a transparent view of what each career could present them, should they decide to pursue it for their own futures.
