We were thrilled to welcome a number of industry volunteers to English Martyrs this week to support our Year 10 students in a series of mock interviews.

The event offered our students a valuable opportunity to gain real-world interview experience, build confidence, and develop key communication skills. Each student took part in a one-to-one interview with a visiting professional and received a certificate of participation in recognition of their efforts.

We are proud to share that the feedback from our visitors was overwhelmingly positive, with many praising the students for their maturity, confidence, and professionalism.

“I have done many of these events at schools in and around the city. English Martyrs stands out as the best by far.”

Farren – Sytner Group
“I love your students – no moaning or groaning, no slouching in their chairs – they just seem to be on it!”

We would like to extend our sincere thanks to all the volunteers who gave up their time to support this important experience. Their contribution helps equip our students with the tools and confidence they need as they begin to prepare for their future careers.
