Careers & Pathways
The support available to pupils when making choices for the next steps in their education is very effective.
Ofsted 2019
We run a varied programme of careers education, support and guidance for all of our students. The programme fulfils the requirements of the Government Careers Strategy (Dec 2017) and resulting Statutory Guidance (Jan 2018).
Activities across all year groups of the school inform and inspire students about a wide range of career areas, and help to build essential employability skills so they can move forward in their career journey. Trips and events are organised to understand where studying particular subjects could lead in the future, and to illuminate the wide range of opportunities for further study and future employment.
As a qualified careers professional I run workshops and offer careers interviews and counselling to all students, in addition to running weekly drop in sessions on Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday lunchtimes.
Each month we publish a Careers One-Stop Shop which highlights up-to-the-minute opportunities for work experience, courses, events and activities as well as exclusive features such as our Teachers "Who Did THAT Job?" Quiz, and interviews with successful alumni who have diverse career stories to tell.
