Event description

Business is variety! Inspire Me

This event is part of the Year 9 careers programme. We would like to make sure our students truly realise that there is more to business than 'lawyer, doctor, accountant' and therefore are keen to introduce them to innovative people. Our Year 9 is an all-girl group (although our school is changing to be co-ed, Year 9 are still all-girl).

The Stephen Perse Foundation is a group of six schools, across five sites in Cambridge, Madingley and Saffron Walden. Founded in 1881, we have always been in the forefront of education developments, providing the best opportunities for our students. These roots are important to our current changes. We have some of the leading results in the country and have been Sunday Times IB School of the Year in 2010 and 2013 as well as Independent School of the Year in 2014.
