Year 11 - Careers Assembly - Thursday 3rd November 2016

Andrew McKinley, Careers Adviser, delivered a very interesting assembly to students in Year 11 on the morning of Thursday 3rd November.

He talked to them about different pathways post 16, gave interesting advice and guidance about how to choose their future pathway and possibly career, and informed the students about useful websites which they can look at. He also told them where the Careers Service is located.

Here are some of the websites that he advised the students to browse:
