Year 7 and 8 HAPs Visit to KPMG Birmingham

A group of our Year 7 and 8 Higher Attaining Pupils had the exciting opportunity to visit the prestigious offices of KPMG in Birmingham. KPMG, one of the "Big Four" professional services firms, specialise in audit, tax, and advisory services, offering a unique window into the world of global business and professional excellence.

The visit featured interactive workshops on problem-solving, teamwork, and creative thinking, as well as career talks where KPMG professionals shared their journeys, emphasising determination and adaptability. A tour of the vibrant office space provided a first-hand glimpse into the dynamic environment of a global firm.

Students reflected on their experiences:

• Jacob 8CHA 2:

   "It was fun and educational, but it pushed me out of my comfort zone."

• Zoya 8PLA 2: 

  "I enjoyed the new experience and learning about technology. I’m now more comfortable with public speaking."

• Senna 8CHA 2 :

   "I appreciated the support and encouragement I received today when presenting ideas."

This enriching visit not only broadened students’ horizons but also boosted their confidence and aspirations. We look forward to taking more pupils to KPMG in the future.
