ISSUE 11 – Friday 23 March 2018
The second half of the Spring term always sees us gather much new information for pupils from attending events like What Career Live?, the National Careers Guidance Show and our International Education Fair.
THE BIGGEST EVER CAREERS WEBINAR
Schools, young people, parents, careers advisors and employers from across the UK were invited to view The Big Assembly at 10.30am on March 8th. Thi s webinar was the highlight of 2018’s National Apprenticeship Week – a live video stream to over 10,000 people wanting to discover more about apprenticeships and careers options post 16/ 18.
With the broadcast taking place on International Women’s Day, it was suitable that the 2018 focus for The Big Assembly was diversity and social mobility. Apprentices and employers shared their experiences and invited questions from a live and virtual audience during the interactive broadcast.

L6TH MOCK INTERVIEW MORNING Saturday 30th June 2018 http://www.2morrow-2day.com/mock-interview.html
#TELLDELOITTE
This would very much suit Lower Sixth students, but note an end of March deadline.
The #TELLDELOITTE challenge arrived via email with the following instructions:
Encourage your students to #TellDeloitte and discover how far their imagination could take them .
At Deloitte, we believe the best way to make an impact is to turn our imagination into action. That’s why we nurture curiosity in our people, right from the very start of their career journey.
What inspires your students? How do they think, learn, solve, and create? What makes them who they are? What’s their ultimate dream?
Encourage them to enter our #TellDeloitte competition , via https://telldeloitte.co.uk/, so they can find out more about what drives their curiosity and how that can help them with their career choices. Once they know what inspires them, we’d like them to #TellDeloitte their ultimate dream, idea, business concept or technology innovation and we could make it happen.
• Every month, the most inspiring entry will win an iPad and stylus.
• All monthly winners will be invited to a Deloitte innovation workshop in April 2018, led by our most inspiring thought leaders.
• One overall winner will also receive a £5,000 award to kickstart their idea or get the training they need to achieve this
All entries will feature on an interactive map.

When we hear of the internet of things and a need for students to futureproof for jobs that do not exist yet, #FinTech is often a reference term or hashtag that crops up. We hope the glossary infographic above is a helpful translation tool!
