Careers / Resources

The Careers library has yet again been awarded a green certificate and has been given a new look. This is located off the Careers Library and allows student access to all types of careers information both hard and computer based.

It is a well resourced careers library where all students can research college and university prospectus, employment information and gain up to date details regarding different courses for GCSE, vocational subjects and A level options.

We have a number of software packages that we use in the school to help with the diversity of Careers. These include

STREETS AHEAD – An introduction to careers from Year 7 and your first choice at GCSE option time. The program focuses on personal skills linked to subject options, with guidelines to career choices.

 
 
KUDOS – Kudos is a unique careers matching and information program which helps young people plan their future.

Suitable for 13 to 19-year-olds, Kudos uses individual interests and qualification aspirations to generate a personalised list of career suggestions.

Kudos also inspires you to explore your own career ideas and discover how suitable they are.
