It is our goal to give students the opportunities and guidance they need to decide on and pursue a meaningful career. Career guidance begins for students at Year 10.
At Year 10 level all students participate in:
A week long work experience placement of their choice
Career testing and debriefing
Information sessions on how to use the Job Guide to identify qualifications needed for specific careers
Information session on how to use VTAC Course Search to explore tertiary courses and to identify pre-requisite subjects at VCE level
Individual subject choice counselling in consultation with the student’s teachers.
Other career guidance includes:
All Year 10 and 11 students attend a career expo, where they can explore an extensive range of career and course options.
At Year 11 and 12 level, subject selection advice continues to ensure maximum success, wellbeing and support.
A brief career test is offered to Year 12 students to help clarify options and to equip students with the language needed to identify their workplace strengths and weaknesses.
Parents and Year 12 students are asked to attend a VTAC information session where student are supported in the tertiary courses selection and application process.
A career newsletter is emailed to all Year 10, 11 and 12 students each fortnight, informing them about tertiary opportunities, information sessions and general career events.
