Students at Etone College recently took part in a vibrant and engaging peer mentoring session designed to support Year 7 pupils in exploring future career pathways. The initiative was led by dedicated Year 8 Careers Ambassadors alongside members of the Sixth Form, who worked collaboratively to guide younger students through valuable resources and opportunities.

The session provided Year 7 students with practical advice on how to navigate the school’s careers website, helping them understand where to find key information about different professions, pathways, and future planning. Mentors shared their own experiences and offered helpful tips, creating an approachable and supportive environment for discussion.

A highlight of the event was the opportunity for students to take part in the popular Buzz Quiz, an interactive activity that helps identify personal strengths and career interests. The quiz sparked enthusiasm and curiosity, encouraging students to think more deeply about their aspirations.

The atmosphere throughout the session was described as fantastic, with students fully engaged and eager to learn. The positive energy in the room reflected the success of the peer mentoring approach, as older students inspired confidence and curiosity in their younger peers.

This event is part of Etone College’s ongoing commitment to developing careers awareness from an early stage, ensuring all students feel informed, supported, and excited about their futures.
