As part of National Careers Week, last week our Careers & Higher Education team hosted a career networking event for our 4th and Lower Sixth Form Pupils.
We were joined by amazing parents and alumni who shared their diverse career journeys from cybersecurity and legal to nutritional therapy and automotive design.
Our great thanks to all for broadening horizons, helping our pupils in their understanding of career pathways and for supporting them to make informed decisions about their next steps.

⭐️ “There are NO LIMITS”⭐️
“I wanted to say thank you for the opportunity for our children to explore the world of work. There are so many roles that didn’t exist when a good number of parents left school. It makes it hard for us to help guide. Meanwhile, traditional jobs are still invaluable but not always considered.
My daughter is a police cadet and from the experience is now determined to go to university to study Criminology, with the ambition of joining the force.
Her ballet shoes sit alongside her police boots, reminding us that there are no limits”.
Kind words from a parent to our Careers and Higher Education team following our recent careers networking event. We endeavour to support pupils to make fully informed decisions as they prepare to fly.

An Animazing Day for 1st Formers at KESW! 💫
Our 1st Form pupils recently enjoyed an exciting visit from Animazing, an interactive educational experience that brings a variety of animals into the classroom.
The sessions supported the pupils’ curriculum learning in biology, building on their earlier work creating cell models. From owls and snakes to tortoises and frogs, the pupils were able to observe and even handle many fascinating creatures.
Ms Street, who organised the visit, shared:
“The pupils saw and touched a variety of animals ranging from a Barn Owl to a Pygmy Hedgehog to a Royal Python. There were many amazed reactions as they learnt how frogs absorb substances through their skin, the tremendous lifespan of Galapagos tortoises, and how global warming is affecting the birth rate of male crocodiles.”
We look forward to welcoming Animazing back to KESW in the future.

Adventure, Growth & Resilience 🧭
At King Edward’s Witley, we’re proud to support our pupils as they rise to challenges that build confidence, leadership, and independence.
Earlier this term, nine 5th Form pupils completed their Silver Duke of Edinburgh’s Award Qualifying Expedition in the South Downs, following their practice expedition in the New Forest last September.
Meanwhile, twelve Lower Sixth Form pupils undertook a three-day training expedition in the Peak District as part of their journey towards the Gold Duke of Edinburgh’s Award. It was an unforgettable experience in resilience, with pupils demonstrating exceptional perseverance and collaboration.
