Careers and Pathways

We work with SDS to help support pupils around their course choices and pathways. We have a Careers Advisor (Angus Hutcheon) that will work with pupils during PSE classes and 1:1 around Course Choices and post school options.

We also use My World of Work as an online tool to support pupils in this area.
