Year 6 Careers day 2023
As part of the Year 6 careers day initiative, the Year 6 children were given the opportunity to meet and interview 3 parents from different professions and fields of work. They met a dentist/entrepreneur, a football coach/bodyguard and a care worker. The parents spoke about their careers and how they reached their goals. The children were really engaged and inspired by the professionals. They asked intriguing questions and took a keen interest in finding out more about these careers. Children challenged typical stereotypes by asking key questions such as whether or not women are found in careers such as football coaching. They were left inspired with the knowledge that women are increasing in many fields of work. We hope that this experience plants seeds of high aspirational goals into our children.
