Just to say how much I enjoyed my visit to Sponne School. The new format was brilliant for me, the introduction of questions to the pupils enabled me to relate my answers to them. Looking forwards to my next visit.

“I have really enjoyed the day. It has been a great opportunity for me to share my knowledge and experience with the Year 8 students. Despite the students being in an early stage of their secondary education, it gives them the chance to get away from the day-to-day class and put into practice other skills they will need to develop in their future careers”.

Thank you very much for your email. AG was a pleasure to have and we would be delighted to have any future students who are interested in Interior Design. You are the first school/college to acknowledge us taking students so thank you.

By: Louise

Many thanks for this, it will look good on the wall. I’m glad we could offer a placement.

By: James

Hi Samantha, Myself and Sharnee from Adecco would just like to let you know what a pleasure it was to come down and meet the students . All of the students in our class were very pleasant and more interactive than I imagined. Despite it being a bit of a boring topic sometimes they all seemed to know quite a lot and there was some fantastic students in our class who knew so much!! I hope the students found it useful and managed to get a head start on creating their own CV’s. Many thanks for inviting us.

By: Amy Harrison

Hi Samantha, Thanks for the opportunity to learn from these young students and to talk about my business.

By: Datis

Hi Samantha, Just wanted to send you a short note regarding today’s speed interview session at Shenley Brook End. I must confess to being slightly apprehensive beforehand, as this is the first time that I have participated in an event like this. I have to say that I found it very rewarding. The Y10 pupils were very attentive and I genuinely felt that they were benefitting from the whole experience. Thanks again.

By: Anthony Britton

Thank you for allowing me to take part. Another great day for the kids they were fully engaged and enjoyed the challenge. Shame you never got to throw the curve balls in, but there were some great ideas and designs. Sorry I missed the last few minutes. LEt me know if you are stuck in future and I will try and help out. If not see you next year.

By: Clair

Hello, just wanted to say thanks for making yesterday's event run so smoothly! The students were all great - very pleasant, polite and interested. I was lucky to have a high proportion who were interested in science and medicine, so hopefully it was interesting for them too. The route into my job was not intentional - I had no idea my job existed until I applied for it 10 years ago - and I think that may have helped some of them realise the rest of their life does not hinge on what they choose now. Thanks, and hopefully see you next year!

By: Lindsay Napier

The pupils were attentive, engaged and keen to learn, lots of questions in the feedback session. They appeared genuinely appreciative for the experience. I look forward to doing it again next year.

By: Andrew P Davies

Hi Sam Good to see you again yesterday. I thought the event was great as where I’ve done careers talks before you find that maybe a handful of students are interested in law whereas the rest don’t want to be there, so this smaller groups format was a really good idea. If there are any others that you need a Solicitor to help out at then I’d be more than happy to do so. I work in Kettering but live in Rugby so can cover off a fairly wide geographical area if needed. Best wishes Tom
