This morning, a group of our students attended the 350 NHS and Social Care Careers Fair, hosted at the University of Cumbria, to explore the vast array of career opportunities within the healthcare and social care sectors.

The event offered an invaluable platform for our students to engage directly with key employers, training providers, and higher education establishments. Throughout the morning, students gained hands-on insights into various vocational and academic pathways, learning firsthand what it takes to pursue a rewarding career in health and care services.

Our students represented the school brilliantly and returned feeling thoroughly motivated, inspired, and equipped with practical knowledge to help shape their future choices.

Insight from Our Careers Team:

"The event gave our students a fantastic opportunity to speak directly with industry professionals and higher education teams. Seeing all the different pathways available has really sparked their ambition and boosted their confidence for their next steps."
