Careers advice at Talocher School

We’re determined to help young people prepare for their future, not just with qualifications, but with the confidence, knowledge and real-world experience to take their next steps with purpose.

 

How we support your child’s future

We work closely with Careers Wales who provide support and advice to our Welsh learners from Year 9 onwards. For learners who are from English local authorities, they have access to independent specialist careers advisors.

  • Career Advisors are invited to all annual reviews for transition groups including Post-16 pupils. This helps us identify opportunities towards work related learning, as well as supporting and advising on curriculum pathways, training and career opportunities.
  • Our dedicated Transition Officer also attends annual reviews and supports young people who will be moving onto their next steps.
  • 1-1 meetings to discuss potential options for their future.
  • Support with applications to further education and courses.
  • We arrange visits to colleges and careers first to allow our young people to explore their options.
  • We invite guest speakers into our school to inspire pupils and introduce them to new possibilities
