On Monday 7 October, our careers team hosted their 'Careers Networking Event', which gave current pupils and parents the opportunity to meet over 30 employers from a range of industries - from pharmaceuticals to hospitality. Among our guests we had 23 OLs join us, offering a deeper understanding of their choosen career paths since leaving school.

There was also a series of seven talks, which offered a deeper understanding of developing career paths. Our keynote speech by Dan Connolly (OL 1999), Founder & MD of Consul Sports Club Ltd, inspired students to follow his lead by nurturing their individual passions and talents as a means of motivating and distinguishing themselves.

Pupils, parents and teachers have already started sending in their postivie feedback from the event:
“A top-notch event! I gained invaluable insights into a broad range of careers, not just the traditional ones”
“It was a beneficial learning opportunity for me as a parent as well as for my child”
“It was interesting to hear the route representatives had taken to get to their current roles”

We appreciate all our OLs who committed time out of their busy schedules to share their experience and expertise. As well as anyone who has donated in giving back to the Lyonian Association community, through mentoring, visiting the school or a monthly fee.
