Key Stage 4

Year 10: World of work…

Pupils will focus on developing the skills to help them to be work ready. They will have visiting speakers from a range of business to talk about different aspects of work life. They will use and consolidate this knowledge in their work experience placement.

Events:

• ESH Group work with our pupils as part of their “Building My Skills” programme. They organise people from the world of work to come in and speak to pupils on a range of topics, such as work place behaviour, producing a CV and interview skills
• The whole school participates in a range of activities relating to careers during National Careers Week
• Pupils have a one week placement at a local company

Year 11: What lies ahead…?

Pupils will develop a greater understanding of what the next phase of their education/training might look like. And what that could lead to. They will also continue to build on the work place skills laid down in Year 10. Pupils will have ongoing input from Woldgate, colleges, employers and training providers.

Pupils will use the Start software as well as a variety of other websites/resources to help them conduct their research.

Events:

• Careers Fair
• KS5 taster day
• East Riding Apprenticeships visit
• Mock Interview Day
• Mock results day (after mocks)
