The day is an opportunity for students to learn about different careers within the British Army, and to see how their academic subjects relate to the world of work. It also helps students to develop skills that are valuable for their future careers, such as communication, teamwork, problem-solving, and adaptability. By identifying and reflecting on their transferable skills, students can discover their strengths, interests, and goals, and make informed decisions about their education and career paths.
