Careers Month

March 3, 2023/in Whole School/by Keris McCormick
At KWS, we have rebranded the month of March as “Careers Month”, during which every student will receive at least one lesson per subject that has some form of careers focus. It is hoped that this will provide students with knowledge about where each of their academic subjects could take them, in terms of their future pathways. We have lots of exciting activities across the range of subjects, including visitors, a governmental decision making exercise and some teachers delivering from the ‘My Learning, My Future’ resources.
 
During this month, all staff are also encouraged to share their career journeys, the skills they have developed and a piece of advice for students when trying to decide their future pathways. Students will see posters on classroom and office doors outlining this information and it is hoped that this will encourage curiosity from students and result in more conversations about careers taking place. I wonder if students will discover which of our staff members used to work at a trampoline park?
 
You too are able to use this opportunity to have “careers conversations” with your child. The Unifrog tool, which all students have access to, has some very useful resources to support this, including some psychometric tests that can be completed. These tests then generate ideas for future careers, based on the answers that the students have given. We have set up a parent login so that you can use Unifrog as if you were a student yourself, allowing you to support your child throughout the process. The sign up code you need is: ‘KWRSparents’ and you can sign up here: www.unifrog.org/code Please note, this code will expire on 4th May 2023.

Happy career exploring!
