We were delighted to welcome chemical engineers from CF Fertilisers, Billingham, for an interactive workshop with our Year 11s. In just an hour, students learned about real careers in chemical engineering – from apprenticeships to degree routes and even the path to becoming a CEO.

They tried on specialist safety gear and took on a hands-on design challenge: creating a system to transport tonnes of ammonia gas safely across a factory site.

A big thank-you to CF Fertilisers for inspiring our future engineers!
