Connecting with Tomorrow's Leaders

Eager students from Dagenham School joined us at the LREF schools day for an afternoon filled with learning, inspiration and mentorship. G&T senior project manager, Anil Singh Rana, and associate, Loice Mhuru, took part alongside a cohort of industry professionals to guide the students through five speed mentoring sessions. 

The objective - to tap into the students' perspectives on the future of London while imparting knowledge С»ÆѼÊÓƵ career pathways, innovative projects which support the race to net zero and the exciting industry advancements that will influence our future cities. Importantly, our volunteers also delved into the human and technical skills essential for a successful career in the built environment.

"It was a humbling experience to speak to the younger generation С»ÆѼÊÓƵ the various opportunities that careers in construction and engineering can offer. It was immediately noticeable how keen the students were to get to know more С»ÆѼÊÓƵ buildings and what we do."

Inspiring City Change Makers

The day was not just С»ÆѼÊÓƵ conversations - it was С»ÆѼÊÓƵ action. After the speed mentoring sessions, the Year 9 students had the chance to bring their future career aspirations to life through an engaging workshop. 

Armed with a design brief for a new sustainable development in London, the students embarked on a creative journey. They mapped out their visionary schemes, capturing images and constructing mind maps that would later be showcased to conference delegates.
