The careers programme in GUST Secondary aims to give students advice and guidance to help them make informed choices about future academic subjects, Higher Education options and careers.

​

In Years 7 and 8 students are introduced, during PSHE (Personal, Social and Health Education) lessons to the concept of thinking ahead to formulate goals and ambitions.

​

In Years 9 and 10 follow-up presentations are conducted and further guidance is given by their teachers and the Senior Leadership Team.

​

Year 11 students are invited to attend a Careers Fayre and receive external careers guidance from qualified professionals. 

​

All students receive careers based input taught through cross-curricular links and topics throughout the year. This gives students the opportunity to study and practice important skills such as CV writing and interview techniques whilst gaining a better understanding of which career path they wish to take.
