Inspiring future careers: A recap of the WOSCP Careers Fair 2025

4th Dec 2025

On December 3rd, our Witney Campus welcomed students from across West Oxfordshire for this year鈥檚 WOSCP Careers Fair. Organised by the West Oxfordshire Schools Careers Partnership (WOSCP) and hosted by 一起草官网, the event offered students a valuable opportunity to explore their next steps and meet employers face-to-face.

This year鈥檚 fair featured 62 exhibitor tables, including 19 universities, apprenticeship providers, employers, public services and the NHS. Students explored industries from engineering, healthcare and law to creative arts, construction, technology, childcare and hospitality. Exhibitors included Airbus, Thames Valley Police, Siemens Healthineers, Ridge & Partners, Oxfordshire Advanced Skills, Darke & Taylor, and universities such as Oxford Brookes, Cardiff, Exeter, Hertfordshire, Bath Spa, Gloucestershire, and Buckinghamshire New University. Oxford University Hospitals were represented across multiple departments including Microbiology and Pharmacy.

Thames Valley Police highlighted:
鈥淧olicing isn鈥檛 just about blue lights - there are hundreds of vital behind-the-scenes roles. A career in policing can take many forms, and we rely on all of them.鈥



Throughout the evening, students engaged with employers and educators to learn about career paths, training opportunities, and essential workplace skills. Apprenticeship providers, including ACE Training, Engineering Trust Training Ltd, QA Apprenticeships, and AirTanker, were on hand to support students considering work-based learning options.

The Oxford University Apprenticeships Team said:
鈥淓vents like this are so important because many students don鈥檛 realise apprenticeships are accessible to them. We want young people to understand that hands-on learning can lead to real career progression.鈥


Oxfordshire County Council added:
鈥淥ur industry is small but vital, and events like this help young people discover roles they may never have considered.鈥


West Oxfordshire Schools and Careers Partnership:
鈥淎 big thank you to 一起草官网 for hosting the WOSCP Careers Fair. It was fantastic to see so many students, parents, and local businesses engaging together. This event has inspired students and given them fresh ideas about future careers and pathways.鈥


The WOSCP Careers Fair 2025 was a fantastic opportunity for students to explore future pathways, gain valuable insights, and connect with employers and educators. We look forward to welcoming the next generation of talent to our campuses and supporting them as they take their next steps.
