Over the last two days we have hosted our Year 11 Mock Interviews event. This is an amazing opportunity for our students to practice their interview skills with a representative from the business world to give them a real-life taste of what a job interview could be like. These interviews are a positive experience for our students and hopefully help to build their confidence for any upcoming sixth form or college interviews.

​

We would like to congratulate the students on how they presented themselves at this event. They were confident, articulate and were able to demonstrate wonderful skills and attributes through both their in-school and out-of-school activities. One employer said… “Thank you for inviting me I thoroughly enjoyed the experience. The wonderful students I met shows a huge testament to the school/staff- they were all well engaged, inspiring, and I have no doubt they will have a bright future ahead!”

​

We wouldn’t be able to run these events without the amazing support of businesses in the local and regional community, so a huge thank you to our business volunteers:
