Last week, Fairfield Control Systems visited school to deliver a presentation and Q&A session to our year 12 and 13 students about apprenticeship opportunities in Engineering, Software, and IT. The students found it very informative, and many signed up to receive more information regarding the degree apprenticeships which opened on 4 March 2024.
