Post-18 Careers Education, Information, Advice & Guidance
Whether your future is to study at university, embark on an apprenticeship, or to take a Gap Year, you are certain to be offered the information, advice and guidance you need in order to make informed choices.
Any student, and/or parents/carers now has the opportunity to arrange a meeting with Siobhan Whiddett our Level 6 Qualified Careers Advisor, to discuss future options and progression routes during and after their time at Notre Dame. To book and appointment with Siobhan or if you have a question about CEIAG provision at NDHS please click here.
We have pages on specific areas of Post-18 CEIAG
For those students who do not want to go onto University, there are a number of good websites to take a look at such as Not Going to Uni which gives you a range of information on alternative options after you've left sixth form. Also, check out the Alternative Professional Pathways noticeboard outside the 6th Form office for opportunities.
Unifrog is an online platform that we use to help you search for qualifications and career pathways.
We set up an account for you and help explain how to use it in your 6th Form Studies lessons.
For more info visit our unifrog page.
