Through our partnership with The Royal Bank of Canada RBC Academy We ran a series of three careers workshops in school for our 6th Formers.
These started last Summer term when they were in Year 12 and culminated in workshop 3 this Feb which helped them apply for RBC Academy bursary internships – exclusive to the four schools taking part.
These RBC Academy internships include a £2000 per year bursary for all three years whilst at University and 21 weeks of paid work placements and mentoring during university holidays.
This year four of our Year 13s have been successful winning the RBC Academy Bursary internships and start their first round of paid work placements at RBC this summer. The students are:
Israel Owolabi
Emmanuel Ashiao
Jacob Osai-Ogbekene
Nnaemeka Ajuzie
This is a huge achievement for these students and for St Bonaventure’s to get four of the six bursaries this year in competition with three other schools is amazing.
