CAREERS and DESTINATIONS
Students are encouraged to think about the widest possible range of potential careers that suit their interests. Careers lessons and interviews, visiting speakers and alumnae, assemblies, form time activities and careers events all allow students to explore their options, and we use Unifrog as the one-stop-shop for all careers information. We have strong links with a number of universities, including the Russell Group through the Realising Opportunities scheme, Oxford, Birmingham and Aston, and also with the Apprenticeship Service, with increasing numbers of students researching and applying for degree apprenticeships.
