Alumni – Where are they now?
This week we welcomed back Simon Wheeler to Bushey Meads School to talk to Sixth Formers. Simon is an Operations Director at a local company. He left Bushey Meads School in 1986 and has remained in the local area.
Year 12 Business and Economics students, enjoyed hearing about Simon’s career progression since leaving school and his advice on joining the workplace in the modern world.
It is always inspiring to hear how former pupils of Bushey Meads School are getting on and how they are making a positive mark upon the world, so do let us know if you were once a student at the school or a member of your family was, as such ex-students make superb role models for our current students.
