Careers Reception

St Edward’s hosted a Careers Reception in February 2015 at The North Wall, for those

members of the Sixth Form who have shown an interest in working in the financial

services industry. We had experts of a wide age range and from an array of businesses in

the sector, covering an extensive range of jobs. Pupils discovered what employers look

for in potential new recruits, and what (as new recruits) they need to be prepared for

(and what they should avoid) to bag their first job. Work experience was one expression

that seemed to come up time and again in conversations between experts and pupils.

Many thanks to Kieran Bundhun (C, 2004-2009), Kelvin Lam (A, 1994-1998) and Julian

Ashby (C, 1993-1998) for sharing their experiences. If you would like to support our

current pupils as they prepare for the world beyond Teddies, the SES Careers Support

Network welcomes anyone who wishes to share their experiences. Members of the

Network offer a variety of opportunities to pupils, including careers presentations, work

experience provision and careers advice and mentoring.

Share your experiences with current Teddies students through the SES Careers

Support Network by contacting the OSE Office on 01865 319438 or email
