Careers Speed Dating

On Tuesday, students in the lower sixth were visited by over 30 different GHS parents and STEM ambassadors for our Careers Speed Dating event.

As a student, it can often be difficult to know exactly which careers are on offer, let alone which career might be right for you, so giving students the opportunity to have a five minute chat with people about careers can be a great way to help them find out about more options for their future.

Students had a chance to talk to people from a huge number of different fields, including engineering, optometry and sound post-production, and they were invited to ask questions and find out what ‘a day in the life’ for them is really like. The event was a huge success, and students came away with new ideas about what they might want to do in the future.

Huge thanks to everyone who gave up their time to talk to our students about their careers!
