Careers Week 2026

As well as the usual Careers Presentations to different year groups, there were activities in the library every lunch time for National Careers Week. We kicked off with an engaging session focused on helping students recognise their own skills, strengths and areas for growth. From communication and teamwork to problem‑solving and creativity, students reflected on what they already do well and identified the qualities they want to develop further. It was a valuable opportunity for them to consider who they are, what they can bring to future workplaces, and how their unique strengths can shape the paths ahead. Day 2 encouraged students to look outward and explore future pathways. They examined different routes into a wide range of careers - including Sixth Form and Higher Education, Apprenticeships, and Degree Apprenticeships -and discussed how gaining workplace experience, alongside building knowledge and skills, can give them a strong start. On Day 4, students made meaningful links between school and the wider world by considering how their favourite subjects can influence their future direction. They explored the skills they enjoy using, matched them to real‑world roles, and discovered new industries they may not have encountered before. We wrapped up the week with Day 5: UniFrog in Action. Through hands‑on sessions, students explored pathways, compared courses, and learned how to use UniFrog to support every stage of their decision‑making.
