On Thursday 23rd November our Y13 students were provided with the opportunity of a mock interview in order to prepare themselves for either the world of work or higher education.

We were delighted to welcome representatives from a number of external organisations many who have returned to support the day, including Align Engineering who are managing the HS2 project, Danny Sullivan Construction, NatWest, Onsite, NG Bailey Morgan Sindall, Twenty-Two support and development, TK Maxx and Warner Bros.

The students were offered valuable feedback on their interview skills, quality of CV and personal statement and were given guidance for improvement where necessary.

Once again, our students impressed the interviewers with their attitude to learning and desire to pursue their future goals…

“Bushey Meads has some inspiring students, I really enjoyed speaking to those I met today”

                                                                                                                                                  NG Bailey                                                                                                                                                                    

“The calibre of students I spoke to would make any School proud”

                                                                                           Align

Comments from our students…

                                                    “The interview day was extremely good! I spoke to the person from Morgan Sindall and even though I am not interested in construction, I was still able to get really good feedback from him and it was really good practice as I will hopefully be getting interview offers from Universities. Thank you so much for this opportunity”

“The Interview went amazingly, they were so kind and said I was amazing and they are so interesting “ 

                            After last year’s event one of our 6th formers successfully gained an apprenticeship with Align and returned to support us this year.
