Inspiring the Black Country 2026

Year 8 pupils attended one of the biggest Careers Fairs in the Black Country. Instead of the usual stands and free pens, this is a Careers Fair with a difference. Every stand had an interactive element, with pupils having the chance to try out a digger, fix a car tyre, practise their welding skills, meet a robot and train for the army. Pupils really enjoyed the variety on offer at the event and were particularly drawn to the E Sports VR championships. The event helped to showcase the wide variety of careers on offer in the Black Country and beyond, and it allowed our pupils to broaden their career ideas significantly.
