Whatever stage you are at in your education, getting Careers Advice will help you to make informed decisions and plan for your future. There are lots of ways you can explore careers ideas and consider the choices and pathways available to you. Making sure you have the right information and guidance could help you progress into the career you want.
Coombe Careers Programme is designed:
To provide a wealth of opportunities for students to learn about themselves, their interests, personal qualities, and what influences their decisions
Encourage career exploration by providing quality and up-to-date information about the world of learning and the world of work
Promote career management by encouraging pupils to take responsibility for their own career decisions and encourage realistic and flexible individual higher education and career paths.
Prepare pupils to manage change and transition in a fast-moving world through their own sense of initiative and enterprise, seizing opportunities and managing unexpected change with success.
Coombe Career Weeks
To ensure that students have a range of career related opportunities, we have organised a 'Career Week' in each of the six half terms throughout the academic year.
