The final enrichment talk for our 2026 Year 13 leavers was a brilliant and inspiring send-off, led by two superb alumni: Old Greshamian’s Nathan Lomax and Jack Stewart-Richardson.

Nathan shared a fresh and practical insight into the power of LinkedIn, showing pupils how he used the platform to help build his business. His message was clear and energising: be honest, back yourself and showcase who you are. From creating a strong profile to choosing the right photo and banner, Nathan gave pupils top tips on how to stand out professionally and start building their network with confidence.

Jack Stewart-Richardson then took pupils on his own remarkable journey — from his time at school, through life beyond the classroom, to joining the Royal Marines and becoming their lead videographer. He spoke about character, resilience and seizing opportunities, before sharing his exciting next step: leaving the service to begin a new chapter as an independent filmmaker and videographer.

Together, Nathan and Jack offered a powerful reminder that there is no single path after school — only the one you create. Their stories were full of energy, ambition and individuality, giving our leavers a motivating glimpse of the exciting pathways now opening up before them.
