On Friday 4th March 180 Year 12 students visited the ‘What Career Live’ Exhibition at the NEC Birmingham.

This is an event for 15-19 year olds to help them decide what to do after leaving school; whether this be an apprenticeship, school leaver programme or university after A Levels. Students were able to find out more information and apply for some of the UK’s top apprenticeship schemes with companies including J.P. Morgan, PwC, Unilever, Deloitte,  Network Rail and many more.

The UK’s top universities showcased their degree courses, campuses and provided further information on employability rates, student satisfaction and student fees. Universities at the event included Bristol, Nottingham, Leeds, Southampton, Manchester and Warwick plus many more.

There was also plenty of fun, interactive skills experiences and free seminars to inspire young  people with career paths to pursue after school.
