Woolwich Students Explore City of London

Sixth formers from Woolwich Polytechnic School embarked on a journey to the City of London, guided by Lady Mayor Dame Susan Langley. Their mission? To demystify the corporate world and inspire young minds. The City Insights Days initiative, launched by Dame Susan, aims to foster diversity in the financial hub that houses 700,000 workers. The students, many meeting City professionals for the first time, were introduced to finance basics, job opportunities, and entry routes. The event sparked conversations about social mobility and confidence, with employees from working-class backgrounds emphasizing the importance of such visits for young people to envision their success in the Citys sleek offices. This outreach is paving the way for a more inclusive future in the City.
