MIDWIFE, engineer, radio presenter — students at the Isle of Wight Studio School were presented with a wealth of opportunities at a ‘speed careers’ event.

Students met with representatives from more than 20 Island businesses and organisations, at the event, hosted by the Education Business Partnership, including the NHS, Cowes Chiropractor, Ascensos, IOW Tomatoes, BAE Systems, Vikoma, the Royal Yacht Squadron, Ryde Yachts, Visit Isle of Wight, Vectis Radio, PC Consultants and the Chamber of Commerce.

Millie Meadows, 15, said: “It was a valuable morning as we met so many businesses we didn’t even know existed.

“They gave us really good advice about the qualifications we need and interview techniques.”
