Event description
Broughton Lead - Personal Statements
S5 & S6 students at Broughton HS are currently preparing for their next steps once they leave school. Pupils who are applying for University, are currently preparing their personal statements for UCAS applications.
On 06 October (date potentially flexible) we would like to give an opportunity to pupils to meet with industry leaders to discuss their personal statements in a mock interview scenario. This will help pupils to consider any changes or improvements they should make to their statement prior to the January deadline.
We have invited industry leaders from a variety of sectors, pupils will be matched to a leader who closely matches their aspirations or intended study area.
