What makes our events special?Emphasis on Exploration – We have a vast range of university, apprenticeship and career representatives at our events. We celebrate the different pathways young people can take and are proud to present a real selection of options. Every student is unique, so our events are designed to equip each student with the knowledge to carve their own individual plan for the future.

Student Support – With seminars, brochures and the invaluable opportunity to engage with our exhibitors, pupils receive an excellent level of help and attention to guide them through their options.

Venue – By holding our events at sporting venues we provide a more exciting and inspirational backdrop.

Timing – This event is ideally timed to help Year 12s explore the full range of options open to them, and to help Year 13s finalise their decisions about their future before exam season, especially if they are seeking post-18 apprenticeships. The event is also ideal to inspire Year 11s who are starting to make decisions about their post-18 education and career choices. Please note our fairs are not designed for Year 9s or 10s.

Teachers and Coordinators – We listen. Your comments and suggestions will be taken on board and implemented. You are supported by your assigned liaison manager – you’ll receive regular updates and have the opportunity to get in touch whenever you need to. We also ensure that teachers are looked after on the day by providing them with their own area with complimentary tea/ coffee, as well as a lunch voucher.
