Careers Fair
Our 2025 Careers Insights Event will take place on Saturday 29 March from 9.00am to 1.00pm and will provide pupils with a wealth of information, guidance and advice on careers and universities.
Pupils from Year 10 through to Upper Sixth will be able to participate in four career/university speaker sessions of their choice and attend a Keynote Speech (this year's exciting speaker is soon to be announced).
Registrations will open on Friday 14 February and to help with decision-making over which speaker sessions to attend there will shortly be Advice For Choosing Talks, along with Speakers Biographies and Talk Topics. We would like pupils and students to be accompanied by a parent or parents to the event, so conversations can continue afterwards.
The deadline for registering will be Monday 3 March 2025. You will receive a personalised timetable upon arrival on the day.

Comments, Head of Careers, Jacqui Quinney, "The event will be a unique and valuable experience and will enable our pupils and students to gain a real insight into the work of work and further study, thus helping them prepare for important decisions that they will need to make over the next few years at Princethorpe and beyond".
