Year 7 Challenge Mentoring with Linklaters 

Our annual ‘Challenge Mentoring’ sessions with Linklaters kicked off this week. A group of year 7 students took a trip to Linklaters offices to meet their mentors and begin the programme. This group of students will visit Linklaters every Wednesday for their sessions which include team building activities, one to one mentoring and interactions with a business environment. A fantastic opportunity for all students involved.
