Year 8 Careers Assembly - Fullers Butchers

On Tuesday, Year 8 got the opportunity to hear from Steve from Fuller’s Butchers and Farm Shop in a careers assembly. Steve told us all about the history of his family business and how it came to be; the students also got to hear about the butchering industry, the skills needed to complete an apprenticeship within it, and the day-to-day jobs of a butcher; a career many of them have probably never considered.

The students listened very intently with many great questions at the end – some in disbelief at the price of a whole cow (£3,000!).
