Choosing which direction to take after leaving school is a big decision.
Avonside School endeavours to provide all students with a range of opportunities to participate in a workplace environment. Careers education is embedded across all subjects as well as being taught through timetabled Careers Lessons during form time and PSHE/Citizenship. All students have access to tailored and impartial guidance from a Regional Careers Advisor appointed by our Proprietors, Outcomes First Group.
Throughout the school, the emphasis is placed on the world of work, opportunity awareness, college experience, and work experience. All students are provided with opportunities to engage in practice interviews and liaise with impartial guidance. This process also provides the specific information required to create individual transition plans. Students who are ready for work experience are supported with a suitable work placement, as guided through appropriate outside agencies.
