We welcomed a variety of
local businesses to St. Clare's for our annual Education Business Partnership
Day, an event aimed at giving our Pre-IB students a glimpse into the world of
work.
Along with students from the
nearby Wychwood School, they took part in group business exercises and
discussions about the skills and ideas behind a successful working
life.
Businesses involved in the
event included Holiday Inn, Integration Technology, Leadbitter and Expatknowhow.

Reece, Careers and Higher Education
Adviser at St. Clare's, said: "This is an excellent way of students
learning about the world of work through team activities. By joining schools,
students have to get to know each other quickly to work out their team's
strengths before undertaking practical tasks similar to those found in different
work places. We are very grateful to all those who give up their time to support
the students with their knowledge and expertise.
