Higher Education (HE) & Careers

Higher Education (HE) & Careers

As students start to make decisions about post-16 course options, higher education pathways and future careers, their exposure to and involvement with the Careers & Higher Education Counsellors increases. Students are introduced to higher education and career pathways as part of the school’s Wellbeing programme. Higher education resources and research materials are made available, along with materials related to a variety of careers. Access to tools and software packages to help students consider career options that match their personal interests and preferences is also available.

 

Additionally, students have the opportunity to hear from and meet guest speakers from universities worldwide who visit throughout the year. Students are encouraged to experience different careers through work experience and internships and other activities which take them into the ‘real world’. The Higher Education team provides guidance through group sessions and individual meetings with students to help them explore a study or career option that best matches their interests, abilities, personality and individual aspirations. We encourage students to take ownership of their higher education and career planning journey so that they will experience personal growth throughout the planning process.
