The entire S3 year group attended four separate sessions, all of which were interactive and well received.

"...some good questions and discussion around the topics covered."
A careers carousel session designed to give S2 pupils an insight into roles within the land-based and food and drink sectors.
A series of lectures, lessons and networking to allow S2 and S3 pupils to learn about the different ways that chemistry can be used in the world of work.
