Year 10 meet the professionals

Our Year 10 students were recently treated to an enlightening and inspirational ‘Meet the Professionals’ careers event

Five professionals from a range of industries gave up their time to participate in a Q&A session hosted by Mr Mathys. They discussed their career journeys, what their current roles entail, the career highlights and the challenges they have overcome along the way.

The panellists were: Taryn Fayers – Head of HR for the Central Functions for Delinian; Shahneila Saeed – Head of Education at UKIE  and Director of their Digital School House; Sam Farah – Co-founder of Equitive UK, who has also worked for the BBC as Head of Journalism for the Middle East and North Africa; Alusine Kamara – Director of Blacks in Boardrooms Ltd and Catherine Okonkwo - founder of COMI Health.

It was a great opportunity for our students to discover more about the world of work.
