The Rowans Annual Carers Fair

What a fantastic turn out for the 2023 Annual Rowans Careers Fair with a wide variety of provider coming into school to engage with our pupils and share the wealth of information regarding apprenticeships, internships and job pathways with our pupils. The following providers were al ion attendance: Waitrose, DWP, Army, Princes Trust, Supajam, ASK, Exima, NHS, Cats Protection, MKC, Police, Rochester Bridge Trust, Greenwich (STARRT), North Kent/Hadlow College, Highways England and National Grid. All providers did not disappoint pupils with so many free gifts to take away promoting their companies. Pupils came out with literally bags full of goodies!

Pupil used the careers information guides to review providers before entering the careers fair and earmarked their top three providers, preparing key question they wanted to ask so they made the very most of their time in the careers fair.

Some very interesting conversations were had whilst pupils completed the Buzz quiz where they found out what animal they were matched to and what personality traits this described. Some were spot on and also linked to career sectors pupils had thought about pursuing. 

We very much enjoyed the morning and as always there was a fantastic buzz of excitement around the school. It is great to have this time to really focus on our pupils’ career aspirations and get to talk to leaders within these sectors. We look forward to building on these conversations in our termly pupil aspiration setting.
