During the recent Enrichment Week, our Year 12 students had the incredible opportunity to explore a range of career paths through hands-on workshops, insightful tours, and interactive experiences. From clinical skills and law insight days to engineering workshops, work observation at a local care home, and a fascinating visit to Jodrell Bank Observatory, students engaged with professionals across diverse industries. These activities offered valuable glimpses into potential future careers, allowing students to develop practical skills and deepen their understanding of fields such as medicine, astrophysics, and law. A huge thank you to all the organizations and teams who supported our students throughout this inspiring week!
