Learners attended an engaging careers fair at the Guildhall, organised by the City of London Livery Companies. The event showcased a wide range of professions, trades, and crafts, offering valuable insights into diverse career pathways.

Hands-on experiences brought careers to life, with learners witnessing skilled professionals in action—from watchmaking to basketmaking. Interactive demonstrations and practical tasks introduced them to unique job possibilities.

Beyond observation, learners engaged in discussions with experts, gaining guidance and inspiration for their future careers. This invaluable opportunity broadened their horizons and deepened their understanding of various industries.

“At the careers event, I was able to learn about soft skills and how they could help me achieve a job but also how to make my character stand out. We got to meet all types of people including manager and people who working in accounting and also got to do interesting tasks such as sketching a picture based on a description,” Zack, year 10 learner.

A huge thank you to the City of London Livery Companies for organising such a dynamic and inspiring event!
