The event was created by Rowena Kidd for 200 students at Stretford High School aged Age 14 - 14.
Event description
Come and inspire our fantastic young people and help them make the right choices before they choose their GCSEs, opening up their minds
Year 9 career market where are young people can have the opportunity to talk to leading businesses so they are more informed about which GCSEs to take and where the growth area is in jobs in the future
Companies will set up stalls in a space set up by the school and may bring business cards, leaflets or some technology to showcase to students. Students will have the opportunity to informally approach lots of different employers, talk to them personally and ask questions. It is important to note that there should be no expectations of any job opportunities being offered by business leaders at a careers fair but this is a great way for students to experience a wide range of businesses in their local community and for businesses to begin to build their talent pipeline.
