FUTURES DON’T HAPPEN. THEY’RE MADE.
New for Autumn 2025, the KGS Accelerator is a careers and futures programme with a difference.
Delivered to Lower Sixth students as part of the timetable each fortnight, it’s designed to reframe students’ thinking about career paths and the challenges along the way, to kick-start a conversation and to build confidence.
From engaging Ted Talk-style presentations to interactive workshops, KGS alumni will talk about their career to date: how they got there, the challenges they faced, how they adapted, and the key skills they consider crucial.
Alongside them, experts in their field will discuss enterprise, resilience and innovation.
What do you need to succeed in today’s competitive, everchanging, digital-first job market? Great exam results? A growth mindset? What about creativity, problem solving, presentation skills, agility, communication, resilience, critical thinking and emotional intelligence? From thriving in large corporate environments to going it solo as an entrepreneur, these real-world skills are the cornerstones of success.
We look forward to welcoming the Class of 2027 to the KGS Accelerator!
