Alumni
Are you a past student at Seaham High?
We would love to hear from you!
We like to keep in touch with previous students from Seaham High School to hear about your career journeys and experiences since leaving us.
Being able to tell our students what our previous learners have gone on to study or the occupation they went on to do, not only inspires students, but raises aspirations and can contribute in motivating them to do well at school.
Some of our Alumni students have already been in touch, with some offering to come into school and give talks to students, either in subject classes or assemblies. Some have also come along to our careers fair to represent their organisation and future recruitment opportunities, including apprenticeships or graduate schemes.
If you are interested in getting in touch to let us know what you are doing now, we would love to hear from you. In addition, if you would like to offer your time to the school or attend our careers fair, please contact Mrs Rochester, our Careers Coordinator. rck@seahamhighschool.com
