PASSMORES Academy and Stewards Academy were absolutely delighted to welcome our year 10 and 11 students to our joint Careers Fair on Wednesday 9th October 2024, held at the Harlow Study Centre.

It was a highly successful event, and was buzzing from start to finish. Various providers attended, including Sixth Forms, Universities, and all our local Colleges as well as employers and training providers representing a wide range of career paths.

Visitors had the opportunity to speak with the providers about post-16 options and to get a better understanding of what is available to them once they leave Secondary School education.

We were so pleased to see how happy the students seemed as they left the premises with a much clearer understanding of not only what they want to do after school, but also, the grade boundaries/criteria for their chosen path as well as brochures to take away.

Students and parents who attended the event said:
“The evening was really helpful and informative”.
“It was helpful to speak to lots of institutions in one evening”.
Providers who attended the event said:
“Amazing event, well organised”. (Hertford Regional College)
“A wonderful event for your young people”. (4Wall Entertainment)
“Spoken to lots of lovely students who were already well informed”. (Harlow College)
“Really lovely meeting your pupils”. (Epping St Johns)

A spokesperson said: “We hope that all the students who attended are now even more excited for their post-16 journeys, and if you have any questions at all about careers, please contact your school careers team.

“We would love to get more feedback from students and parents/carers who attended this event. If you click on the QR code it will take you to a short survey. This will help us to plan a similar event next year. “We really do value your feedback”.
