On 26th June 2026, Three Peaks Primary Academy was filled with excitement and curiosity as our Year 6 pupils took part in an inspiring Careers Fair, designed to open their minds to the wide world of opportunities awaiting them beyond primary school.

The event brought together an impressive range of employers and professionals from across the region, each offering a unique insight into their industry. From emergency services and engineering to aviation, law and healthcare, pupils enjoyed hands-on conversations that helped them see how passions and talents can grow into future careers.

Throughout the day, our Year 6 children shone brightly, asking thoughtful questions, sharing their ideas, and showing genuine enthusiasm as they explored roles they may one day pursue. Their confidence and curiosity were praised by every visito

We were delighted to welcome representatives from:

• Jaguar Land Rover
• EDF
• Royal Air Force
• Staffordshire Police
• Midlands Air Ambulance Charity
• easyJet holidays
• St John Ambulance
• Specsavers
• Members of our Academy Council
• A local solicitor
• Staffordshire Fire and Rescue Service

Each professional generously shared stories about their career journeys, the skills they rely on, and what inspires them in their roles. These real-world insights helped bring learning to life, giving pupils a greater sense of what they can achieve with dedication and ambition.

The event concluded with smiles, new ambitions, and a buzz of excitement as pupils left with fresh ideas about the possibilities ahead. Three Peaks Primary Academy is proud to support our children as they begin to dream big and look forward to the adventures of their educational and career journeys.

Why Events Like This Are Important

The Year 6 Careers Fair plays a vital role in preparing pupils for the next stage of their educational journey. By meeting a diverse range of professionals, children gain a deeper understanding of the world beyond school and begin to recognise the many pathways open to them. It helps them connect classroom learning with real-life opportunities, boosts their confidence when speaking to new people, and encourages them to imagine ambitious futures. Most importantly, it inspires pupils to believe that with hard work, determination, and curiosity, they can achieve anything they set their minds to.
