"I was drawn to the courses on offer and the sports coaching facilities. I knew Esher would offer me better opportunities and a supportive environment and I thoroughly enjoyed my time at Esher. The teachers’ passion and enthusiasm made it easy for me to work hard and aim high.”

When Callum joined Esher Sixth Form College in 2020, he was uncertain about his career path. It wasn’t until he attended a College careers fair that he heard about an apprenticeship scheme with Dexters Estate agents and discovered his interest in sales. Fast forward to today, and Callum is now selling multi-million properties as a Sales Manager with Dexters Estate Agents.

"I went to Esher Sixth Form College from 2016 to 2018 after graduating from Esher High. College was such a big change for me at the time and I have so many fond memories. Going from a small group of friends at school who were interested in maths and physics to meeting whole classes of people choosing to explore the subjects was such a cool experience. One of my fondest memories of college was our physics trip to Geneva, where we explored first-hand the tech behind the world’s largest super collider. The experience really was amazing. I think both the opportunity to see the science up close and the amazing dedication from the maths and physics departments really pushed me to pursue a career in STEM."

Alumni Jacob Scott is currently working as a Software Engineer. Having recently graduated with first class honours in MEng Computer Science from the University of Southampton he talks here about his education journey into Software Engineering.

"Studying at Esher was the first time I had proper independence when it came to my studies. This combined with the varied timetable allowed me to balance my time and study in a way that best suited me and meant I had extra time to spend with friends and work part time, alongside my studies."

At the moment I work full time as a First Officer for a UK based Charter Airline, operating the Boeing 737 My work base is located at London Gatwick Airport, from where I fly all over Europe, North Africa, and the Middle East. Sometimes I’m deployed away from base and tasked with flying to various destinations around the world. Recently, I’ve flown to Antarctica, the Pacific Islands, and more. I also work part time as an air traffic controller at a private airport in North London. Based in a control tower, I’m responsible for all aircraft movements in and around the airport. This job is super fun, although it can be challenging at times.
