During careers week we were visited by a number of interesting people. They told us about their jobs and the journey that took them to where they are now. Our guests included a mechanic, health visitor, sports coach, scientist, Starbucks manager, legal researcher, PT, physio, florist, visual impairment and speech therapist.

We asked a number of questions to find out more about each person and their career. We now know so much more about the skills and training required to do certain jobs. An important message we received from many of our guests was… ‘do something you enjoy and really care about’. In the future, we may spend much of our life working so it is important to find jobs that will develop our skills and make us happy.

Some of us are now interested in doing jobs we learnt about during careers week!
