Focus Friday is back! 🤩 I NEED YOU 🤞🏽
If anyone out there would like to give up 1 hour on a Friday morning to inspire our next generation.
Our pupils LOVE hearing about different careers and opportunities.
Contact me… Thank you Maz 🙏🏽🥰
Our first Focus Friday of the academic year🤩Thank you to Kath who came to talk to our students about her varied career within Civil Engineering. Well done to our students who attended a breakfast meeting at 8.15am, to hear Kath’s fascinating journey.

It's Year 11 mock interviews today at @PerryfieldsAca, with Pauline Jackson, Connexions Sandwell Careers Adviser and Mrs Smith, Head of Year 11. You all did so well! For interview hints and tips head over to our website connexionssandwell.co.uk @sandwellcouncil
One of my fave days! I love the build up…our pupils looking for jobs, realising the career opportunities out there, filling in an application form, preparing their CV and then 🥁 TALKING TO STRANGERS 😳 surviving and smashing it! 😅🤩 Couldn’t do it without the volunteers ⭐️
A great end to half term; 174 year 11 pupils had a mock interview with 10 external employers. They had to find a job online, write an application form and prepare a CV.
Pupils were petrified at first but loved the experience. Thanks to our volunteers. #togetherweachieveexcellence
Exhausted now but totally worth it… Introducing as many pathways as possible, to enable pupils to make informed decisions and that’s what it’s all about! 🤩 #raisingaspirations
170 year 11 pupils took part in a University campus experience day. Thank you to @AstonUniversity @unibirmingham @UCBofficial @wlv_uni for showing our pupils another pathway open to them, should they wish 🤩 #TogetherWeAchieveExcellence
