Didsbury pupils inspired by women in aviation on International Women’s Day
Pupils from a school in Didsbury enjoyed a day at Manchester Airport on Friday (8 March), learning about careers in aviation from female airport colleagues.
The International Women’s Day visit saw a group of 30 pupils from Parrs Wood High School meet airport staff in the AeroZone educational facility before taking a tour of the new Terminal 2.
More than a dozen colleagues from a wide variety of roles took part in question and answer sessions (Q&As) with the pupils, including women working in airport security, airfield operations, procurement, hospitality and community engagement, in addition to colleagues from partners DHL and Greater Manchester Police.
