Abbs Cross Students Explore Careers in Medical Science

On Friday 6th November, students from Years 9–11 at Abbs Cross Academy who are interested in pursuing a career in medical science attended an exciting International Medical Physics Day event at Barking, Havering and Redbridge University Hospitals NHS Trust (BHRUT).

The event provided students with a valuable insight into the fascinating world of Medical Physics and healthcare science, exploring the wide range of careers, specialist technologies and opportunities available within the NHS. It was a fantastic opportunity for students to learn more about how science, technology and healthcare combine to support patient care and treatment.

Students thoroughly engaged with the event and gained a greater understanding of the diverse pathways available within this important and rapidly developing field.

We are grateful to the Medical Physics team at BHRUT for organising such an informative and engaging experience and for providing our students with an opportunity to explore potential future careers. All participating students also received certificates of attendance to recognise their involvement.

A fantastic experience for our aspiring healthcare scientists and a great example of bringing careers learning to life!
