We were delighted to welcome Ben Tinkler-Davies (Tyson’s 2016) virtually back to Alleyn’s to speak to Years 10, 11,12 & 13 a part of the School’s careers programme.
Ben who studied Aerospace Engineering at the University of Cambridge stressed the importance of choosing the right course at university and also encouraged current pupils to continue their co-curricular activities after they leave school.
Ben shared how the TeDx Talk Start with Why by Sion Sinek had challenged his perspectives and encouraged pupils to 'challenge what they know' both at university and when they start their careers.
Ben now works as a Design Engineer at Arrival, an up-and-coming electrical vehicle manufacturer, and extolled the virtues of working at a start-up.
The next Alleyn's Junior School Open Event is from 1.30pm to 3pm on Wednesday 22 May 2024. There will be a Head's Talk at 1.40pm after which you will be offered a tour of the school with a pupil. There is no need to book a place at this Open Event - everyone is welcome.
