Pupils from Hayfield Primary School and St Alban’s Primary school took part in a special careers event at Doncaster Sheffield Airport (DSA) on 2 May 2019. The visit saw the Airport launch the next cohort of its Bright Futures school engagement programme which aims to inspire more children and of greater diversity to consider careers in aviation.
The children aged between 8 and 10 heard from members of the Airport team to find out about the many roles and job opportunities at the Airport. The programme first launched last year focusses on children who will typically be seeking to enter the world of work around halfway through some of the most significant growth and developments at the Airport as part of its 20-year Masterplan to 2037.

O aeroporto, formalmente conhecido como Robin Hood, mudou seu nome para o aeroporto de Doncaster Sheffield nos últimos anos, está alinhado com as companhias aéreas e o nome comumente adotado por seus passageiros. Robin Hood ainda será retido dentro da marca para o futuro, à medida que o aeroporto desenvolve seu tráfego de turismo de entrada. e além. ”
Teacher, Natalie Radford, from Hayfield Primary, said: “It has been a really interesting day for the children and helped them to understand the many different roles that an Airport has and given them lots to think about. Everyone thinks about cabin crew or pilot, but today has shown that there are so many other career options from retail to firefighters, to engineers and beyond.”
Gerente de desenvolvimento de carga, Amira El-Khrouf, Andy Hudson, gerente de serviços de tráfego aéreo, Mike McGann, gerente de engenharia e membros do posto de bombeiros do aeroporto estavam à disposição para falar sobre suas viagens individuais no aeroporto e fazer perguntas dos alunos. The schools’ engagement programme was launched in 2018 as part of the public consultation on the Masterplan which saw 1,600 responses and overwhelming 90% of responses either supporting or strongly supporting the proposed Masterplan.
Robert Hough, Chairman of Doncaster Sheffield Airport, said: “We are delighted that children from our local area were so keen to come and find out more about what we do at the Airport and share the honour of officially Desvendo nosso novo sinal. Para nomear o aeroporto com um ponto focal do local e da região, servimos com tanto orgulho. ”
“We are confident of a bright future here at DSA and hope to see many of them again in ten to 15 years’ time as our next generation of engineers, managers, air traffic officers or aircraft crew.
“We are seeing significant growth in passengers numbers, expected to increase between 15 and 20% in the year ahead with 11 new destinations added in the last year so felt that it was the right time for us to name the Airport with a focal point of the place and region we so proudly serve.”
Dan Jarvis, prefeito da região de Sheffield City, disse:“ A estação ferroviária proposta da Linha Principal da Costa Leste seria realmente uma mudança de jogo para a DSA e para o norte mais amplo, com até 73.000 novos empregos e um impulso multimilionário para a economia.
“It’s therefore absolutely right that young people are at the centre of these ambitious plans and, during today’s event, I was inspired by their energy and enthusiasm for the world of aviation.
