Mrs Rivers sent this report:
The Careers Department had the pleasure of hosting a Careers Fair on Thursday 27 February as part of the Power Day. This was open to Year 11 and 12 during lesson 5 and then to all year groups and the public after school. We were really pleased that nearly 60 different organisations agreed to be exhibitors at the Fair. These included One Maidstone, European School of Osteopathy, KCC Maidstone Community Services, DHA Planning, Army, BT, LIBF, Brachers LLP, Considine Limited, Kent Fire and Rescue, NHS, Specsavers Opticians, Cougar Automation Limited, The Rolex Watch Company, Chilston Park Hotel, Bell Equine Veterinary Clinic, Wilkins Kennedy, Kent Police, National Trust, AbBaltis Ltd, Whitehead Monkton, Hilton Hotel, Lloyds Bank, Letts Wealth Management Ltd, Morgan Sindall and BAM, Jackson Civil Engineering, BAM Construction, Kent Law Society, BAE Systems, Ship Safe Training Group, Mote Park Veterinary Group, University of Surrey, University of Lancaster, University of Kent, University of Cambridge, University of Sussex, Kent Training and Apprenticeships, Norland College, Projects Abroad, Covea Insurance, Frontier, UCA, UEA and RDT Ltd. We are really grateful to all our guests for making this event such a success. Students were able to have conversations with prospective employers, universities and gap year organisations and find out more about what they need to offer them in their future applications. Rolex were particularly popular with students and staff especially as they brought along a number of watches to try on and had expert watch makers showing how they put a watch together! A hugely successful and well attended event and some new useful links made for everyone as a result.
