Plashet Year 9 visit Barclays Canary Wharf

20 Year 9 students had the opportunity to go to Barclays at Canary Wharf today, we had a very interesting talk by Josh - a post sanctions manager (the department that sends out the paperwork for agreed loans to businesses) about presentation skills.

We then we're split into 4 groups and had to then prepare a presentation to answer a variety of questions on women in business.

We then had a quick break and went on to the 'speed dating!' -Not really! We just had 2 minutes to talk to a Barclays volunteer about their role and our aspirations!

After a tour of the building and visiting the 30th floor! We found somewhere to eat lunch and came back to school.
