Canon Slade School Head Teacher: Mrs K Sudworth BEd NPQH October 2019 Dear Parents/Carers CANON SLADE CAREERS CONVENTION: THURSDAY 21st NOVEMBER 2019 As part of our ongoing commitment to careers advice and guidance, I am writing to advise you of our annual Careers Convention on the Thursday 21st November from 6.30pm to 8.00pm. The event will take place in our School Hall and Chapel and parents/carers and students from Year 9 through to Year 13 are warmly invited to attend. The event will be of great benefit to students when making decisions about their future career paths. On the evening there will be representatives from a wide variety of professions and careers, uniformed services and further and higher education. Please see the attached for a full list of exhibitors. There will also be opportunities to speak to training providers, who can offer guidance and information on the various levels of apprenticeships available to both school and college leavers. This year’s event is set to be our largest yet, with new exhibitors from both industry and higher education; which I am sure will be of particular interest to our current Year 11 and Sixth Form students. Once again, there will be two short talks on Labour Market Information and Apprenticeships. More information about these talks will be available on the night. I do hope that you are able to attend our event and I look forward to meeting you on the evening.
