Tewkesbury Academy Students Inspired at C2S Growth Careers Event at Cheltenham Racecourse

By Schools Correspondent

All Year 11 and Year 12 students from Tewkesbury Academy had the incredible opportunity to attend the C2S Growth careers event at the iconic Cheltenham Racecourse. 

This event brought together leading businesses, industry experts and educational partners to inspire and inform young people about the diverse career pathways available to them.

The day was packed with interactive stands, networking opportunities and motivational talks designed to help students explore future options and develop essential employability skills.

From learning about apprenticeships and university routes to discovering emerging careers in technology, healthcare and engineering, our students gained valuable insights into the world of work.

Sarah Baird, Careers and Pathways Lead at Tewkesbury Academy, commented: “This event is a fantastic way for our students to connect with employers and understand the skills and qualities they need for success in the modern workplace”. 

Circle to Success, a respected business network, hosted a range of local and national employers who shared their expertise and offered practical advice. Students left feeling inspired and better prepared to make informed decisions about their next steps.

Tewkesbury Academy is committed to providing meaningful career experiences and this visit reflects the school’s dedication to preparing students for life beyond education.
