Beyond our current pupils, Pharo Schools alumni are an integral part of our community, comprising graduates who have gone on to excel in various fields. Alumni constitute a platform for fostering connections, supporting professional development, and maintaining a lifelong bond with the school. Here are some key details about our initiatives around alumni:

Networking Opportunities: Alumni represent a valuable network of professionals across different industries. Alumni have access to exclusive networking events, both online and offline, where they can connect, collaborate, and share resources. Given that historically, many of our alumni have gone on to high profile positions, this network serves as a unique platform for mentorship, career guidance, and collaboration on projects and initiatives.

Alumni Events: We organise a range of events throughout the year to bring alumni together. These events include reunions, networking mixers, guest speaker sessions, and professional development workshops. Alumni can reconnect with former classmates, engage in meaningful conversations, and stay up to date on the latest developments within the school community.

Mentorship Programs: We run mentorship programmes that facilitate connections between recent graduates and more experienced alumni. Mentors provide guidance, career advice, and support to mentees as they navigate their post-secondary education and career paths. This mentorship initiative helps foster a sense of community and assists students in making informed decisions about their future.
