Thanks to Stephen Savage from New Driver for his generous compliment: "I have been in many schools but I have never seen such a good careers event."
Our students were equally impressed with Stephen's valuable advice for starting off on the road for the first time, covering learning to drive, insurance, buying a car, maintenance, and staying safe.
A huge thank you to all our guest speakers today for taking the time to motivate and inspire our students:
Kevin Quinn from Redhat, past science teacher and one of our parents
Paul Ferguson, current staff, sharing insights on careers in the PSNI
John Keane, founding governor, who spoke about his fascinating career as a journalist, with his proud grandson Dara in the audience
Barbara Campbell, who gave an emotional talk about her career in social work
Dr. Richard Wright, who shared his journey as both a doctor and a minister in the Methodist Church
All our speakers had one common message: follow your heart to find a job you love, and if you realise it's not for you, don't be afraid to change careers.
Thank you to everyone who made this event such a success!
