Here at Weydon we hold various career events throughout the year, please read on for more information and to find out how you can help...
Autumn Term
Year 11 Mock Interviews
During the autumn term, in collaboration with the PSHE department, we hold our Year 11 mock interview event. Mock interviews are a fantastic way for students to learn more about what a real interview situation is like, what questions they might be asked and of course, being prepared for any unexpected questions. After working on their interview preparation skills and developing their CV during PSHE, students attend this short interview at a set time during the school day, receiving both verbal feedback and written feedback from the interviewer. The aim of the activity is to help to build confidence and to put those all important preparation skills into action and use the feedback received to build on their interview technique.
Please contact Katharine Fry for more information.
Spring Term
Careers Fair
On the 12th March 2026 we will be holding our annual careers fair. A range of employers attend on the evening, providing students and their parents/carers with information about careers, qualifications and entry routes. It is a fantastic way to show students all of the amazing opportunities open them and to encourage them to research their options.
Please contact Katharine Fry for more information.
