Our Careers Programme
Career education supports pupils in making informed decisions for the future.
Our carefully planned programme includes PSHE lessons, form time, assemblies and career focus days. We provide personalised opportunities to develop pupils’ employability skills, including problem-solving, communication, critical thinking, risk-taking, creativity, leadership and teamwork.
Visits from Teck Trucks and guest speakers from diverse sectors alongside trips to university conferences, aviation simulators, and Sky Studios, broaden pupils' exposure to various industries, helping them explore the full range of opportunities available to them.
We encourage all pupils to follow their passions, make good choices, and develop the skills to lead them into their chosen careers.
