Careers
As part of our careers and opportunities offer to pupils, we plan to invite a range of local and national company representatives to visit us at Burstow Park School.
Visit from Balfour Beatty
On Friday the 18th October our students were visited by representatives from the construction business Balfour Beatty.
They listened to a presentation about the roles, responsibilities and important work carried out by Balfour Beatty and learnt about a variety of jobs. These ranged from painting white lines on roads to operating drones to view wide areas of the land before, during and after a road or bridge has been built.
After the presentation, the students then had the opportunity to operate and fly a drone for themselves. We have some very skilful drone operators in the making at Burstow Park School and perhaps the visit has inspired some of our students to consider a career in construction in the future.
