Cabinet Office Visit

17 Mar Cabinet Office Visit

Last Friday, at the end of National Careers and Apprenticeship Week, eight students from Years 9 to 13 visited Sir Jeremy Heywood, Cabinet Secretary and Head of the Civil Service at the Cabinet Office. We went to learn about the Civil Service, what it is like to work there, the kinds of occupations and opportunities available, and the different routes into the Civil Service. It was also a very unique opportunity to ask a prominent politician questions. We were so impressed with the mature and professional manner in which all students conducted themselves and the insightful questions that they asked. Billy Simson, Year 13 said: “Visiting the Cabinet Office and meeting Sir Jeremy Heywood has been an amazing opportunity and an eye-opening experience. I had considered a career in the Civil Service but, after today, I now have a much better idea of what it would involve.”

Students involved were:

Orsilda Lleshi 10E, John Mikeli 1G, Daniel Barcroft 9B, Radoan Mohamed- Ali 12D,

Melody Day 13E, Billy Simson 13E, Armandas Smailys 12C and Abigail Hall 12B
