Hi everyone!
I wanted to highlight two interesting events taking place this week. The first, tonight (Tuesday 29th November) at 6-7.30 is an alumni event with Judge Ifey Munonyedi and a must for anybody interested in a career in Law, particularly the Bar.
For anybody interested in teaching, at 1-2pm on Wednesday 30th November we have an event with Ark Teacher Training in iQ East, giving details of their training opportunities.
Details and links to book onto both events are below, and you can find more events on CareersHub. Don't miss out!
Best,

“My favourite thing about teaching physics is helping pupils towards that ‘eureka’ moment and seeing them understand a concept or method. It is so rewarding when their hard work has paid off, knowing that you have been a part of that journey.” Ellyn, Ark Physics trainee
