The Turberville Building was buzzing with conversation as Lower Sixth students took part in ÌÇÐÄÊÓÆµâ€™s annual Speed Networking Event.Ìý
Now firmlyÌýestablishedÌýin the Sixth Form calendar,ÌýthisÌýeventÌýbringsÌýtogetherÌýa large number ofÌýOldÌýElthamiansÌýfrom a wide range of industries and professions, giving students a valuable opportunity to explore potential career pathways, gain practical advice and hear first-hand about life beyond school.Ìý
To accommodate the size of this year’s cohort, the event was split into two sessions, with students attending either a morning or afternoon programme. A new pre-booking system also allowed students to arrange appointments in advance with the alumni they most wished to meet,ÌýenablingÌýmore meaningful conversations.Ìý
RepresentingÌýsectors including finance, law, medicine, technology, engineering, marketing, the creativeÌýindustriesÌýand many others, our OldÌýElthamiansÌýgenerously shared their experiences,ÌýinsightsÌýand advice with students as they begin to consider university courses,ÌýapprenticeshipsÌýand future careers.ÌýÌý
We are enormously grateful to all the OldÌýElthamiansÌýwho gave their time to support the event. Their willingness to share their knowledge and experiences continues to make a significant difference to our students as they take their next steps.Ìý
