Mr Yates also gave the students an insight into Psychometric Tests.

Some of Malcolm’s top tips to the students included harnessing your brain to your capabilities, be you, and to do what you want to do!

Mr Yates said: “Don’t take up a career that you won’t be happy doing – you only get one life make the most of it!”
