What an incredible day at Bloxwich Academy as we welcomed a fantastic range of organisations to our Careers Fair 2026! Our students from Primary through Year 10 engaged brilliantly, using tailored question sheets to learn more about different roles, pathways, and skills for the future.

A huge thank you to all the organisations who gave their time, shared their expertise, and inspired our young people:

Walsall College • Barr Beacon SCITT • Wednesfield AC Sixth Form • Nova Training • British Army • In-Comm • LD Training • Derby University • Zest Education • Kier • Crown Highways • Gestamp • KPMG • West Midlands Police • AtkinsRealis

Our pupils showed real curiosity and confidence, asking insightful questions about career routes, qualifications, training, skills, and day‑to‑day responsibilities across a huge range of sectors.

It was wonderful to hear so many pupils say how much they gained from the event — with some even telling us it has confirmed what they want to do in the future, including one student who left feeling certain they want to become an accountant. Moments like this show just how powerful these opportunities can be.

Thank you again to everyone who attended and helped make this event such a success. We’re incredibly proud of our students and grateful to our visitors for inspiring the next generation.
