Careers
In Year 9 the emphasis is on careers exploration. The major focus for pupils is to work in groups to research a career and present their findings to their peers. They are assessed in terms of the content and also for their presentation skills. This exercise provides pupils with an opportunity to use the resources in the school library and become acquainted with the Careers Classification Code.
During tutorial year 10 students follow a programme which helps prepare them for the world of work.
All Year 11 students start of the year taking part in the Skills for Life Conference. Students should have an individual or group interview with the Careers Co-ordinator during the year. At the end of the Autumn Term students take part in a careers conference which focuses on post-16 opportunities.
