Concordia Winter 2019 29 Concordia Winter 2019 28 Forthcoming Events Development Development Career Inspirations Friday 31st January 2020 20.30 Dining Hall, Merchant Taylors’ School Career Inspirations marks the beginning of the careers programme for Fourths boys and beyond. A taster for as wide a variety of careers as possible as our boys have the opportunity to quiz our guests on what it is really like to work in their sector and what their career path has been to date. OMT speakers offer a particularly valuable insight to our boys because you are able to relate to them from your own educational experience. Please email development@ mtsn.org.uk if you would like to take part in this event. We are always looking for speakers for our careers programme.
