Leading Dorset law firm Coles Miller has donated £2,000 to Parkstone Grammar School to help create a new central Careers Hub.
Previously the school’s careers area was based within its main library. Now the school has converted an office room into the smart new hub.
Headteacher David Hallsworth said: “I would like to offer a massive thank you to Coles Miller Solicitors for their very generous £2,000 donation towards the refurbishment of the Careers Hub at Parkstone.
“With their support, we’ve been able to place the hub centrally within the school – enabling much easier access and giving careers an even greater profile.”
The Poole solicitors have a long history of supporting the Sopers Lane school through initiatives such as Dorset Young Chamber.
The Careers & Enterprise Company encourages schools to have an Enterprise Adviser from local business. Parkstone Grammar School’s adviser is Coles Miller Associate Solicitor Nicola Wootten.
Coles Miller Managing Partner Adrian Cormack is a governor at the school.
“We’re delighted to have had the opportunity to assist the school with creating a new space for students to research and discuss their future careers,” he said.
“We’ve supported the school for a number of years by providing an adviser and assisting with different careers events to help students.”
