FUTURE FORWARD

THIS IS YOUR FUTURE!

Welcome to the final Careers newsletter for this academic year. Its been a busy term of exams, trips and performances, and I'm sure everyone is looking forward to a bit of a rest over the holidays! Its also a great opportunity away from day to day studies to spend some time thinking about the future, for example visiting Careers platforms (suggestions listed on the back page) tp follow up on jobs and industries you wanted to investigate further; or challenge yourself to learn or develop a new skill (eg a language on duolingo, a musical instrument; or learn some coding or how to make a short film on your phone). Its also a great time for work experience to gain employability skills, find out more about the workplace and add to your CV. Ask your family about any opportunities to spend a few days in their organisation, or volunteer with local community events. There are also online work experience opportunities (try Springpod) that you can complete on demand in your own time from the comfort of your own bedroom. So don't forget to make the most of your time inbetween plenty of R&R this summer!
