Careers Information

All pupils have access to comprehensive careers advice and guidance. However, at certain key points, our Careers Officer visits school assemblies and parents’ evenings to further support pupils in making important life choices.

Pupils in Year 8 experience a Careers Fayre, held in our Sports Hall. A range of local employers from the private sector, public sector and third sector give advice and guidance on their respective areas. The Careers Officer attends options launch events and visits registration classes.

During Year 10, pupils are able to make an appointment for a one-to-one interview if required, and may even bring their parents/carers along. They are involved in taster and transition events with most of the post-16 colleges in the area and have the opportunity to undertake work experience and have access to a work related education week. Our main post-16 providers also attend our Parents' Evenings to offer support.

Throughout Year 11, the Careers Officer meets with pupils to provide advice, support and guidance on future choices at post-16 and beyond. Year 11 pupils receive presentations from colleges and sixth form providers and interviews to ensure they are selecting appropriate courses.
