February 2012Hello all, There is lots happening over the next few weeks and students should put these key dates in their logbooks. Forthcoming events: Careers Fair 9th February at LEH and Hampton Boys School The LEH and Hampton Boys are holding their annual Careers Fair and have offered the opportunity for Hampton Academy students to attend. The event starts at 7pm and continues for a couple of hours. There is no formal structure as students can move between the two schools; the event will give students in years 11 the opportunity to talk informally to representatives of various careers and professions about training, qualifications, qualities or personality, career prospects etc. Many of the representatives will be parents of LEH/Hampton Boys pupils, together with a number of ex-pupils and contacts of the schools. An extremely wide range of careers will be represented so a full programme will be distributed to enable students to plan their evening. To book yourself (parents are also welcome) please contactTim Shehuontshehu@hamptonacademy.org.ukApprenticeship Month at Hampton Academy
