Engineering Careers Trip to JJ Smith

“Successful engineering is all about understanding how things break or fail.” Henry Petroski.

A group of year 10 students visited JJ Smith on Thursday 30th March.

The event included the students listerning to a presentation on the history of JJ Smith and also they were able to visit a number of stalls showing them the process of the products they manufacture. Our students were given the opportunity to meet members of staff who are on the apprenticeship programme at JJ Smith and ask questions about the apprenticeship process.

Our students were given the opportunity to find out useful information about the opportunities in engineering.

The students and staff found the expience extremely informative, engaging and fascinating. They really enjoyed the experience at having such a wonderful opportunity to learn more about engineering.
