Guidance and Advice

What You Need to Know
  • There are many people and places that can help you and your child make decisions about their future.
  • As options and pathways can be so complicated, it’s important you look at the right information and get the right advice.
  • Your child’s tutor or subject teachers are available to discuss subject choices and support their applications for further study.
  • There are also other staff in school that can help such as a learning manager, mentor, support worker or head of year.
  • CareersInc advisers are working in your child’s school and are there to give external, independent, impartial advice based on the needs of your son or daughter.
  • Careers advisers from the National Careers Service are available over the phone to give information and advice about different careers and pathways.
