Emergency services talk at Welwyn Garden City school
DO you remember those strenuous school days, when you were plotting your future career?
It’s a difficult time for most.
For some the biggest question is, what exactly do you want to do next?
Once you have a rough idea of a possible future, then you have to find out the next best step in order for you to achieve this.
Should you go out into the ‘big wide world’?
Or maybe you would be best to take on further education, in sixth-form or college, and then eventually onto university?
GCSE and A-level students at Stanborough School were given a helping hand this week.
