“We were delighted to see such enthusiasm for apprenticeships from both students and parents and the key steps that need to be taken to decarbonise and address the climate emergency. It was great to go back to my former school and showcase the renewable energy sector and the multiple opportunities it offers. Being an all girls school, I especially enjoyed talking to the young women who are eager to start their careers in the energy sector!”
Pre-Construction Engineer, Victoria Wallbank has also been engaging with students and travelled to South Tyneside to meet 30 girls and nonbinary people who have shown an interest in STEM careers when choosing their GCSEs.
The day was filled with presentations and workshops and Victoria joined three other women in STEM roles, discussed their careers, and offered advice followed by a speed networking session to give students the opportunity to talk in a more relaxed setting.
