    • Personal Guidance

    At Harris CofE Academy, we are committed to supporting every student on their journey towards a successful future. Our Level 6 trained Careers Adviser offers personalised careers guidance to help students explore their options, set goals, and make informed decisions about their education, training, and career pathways.

    Who Can Access Careers Guidance?

    • Year 10: All Year 10 students will have a scheduled one-to-one careers meeting. You will be sent an email before your meeting and it will be recorded on Unifrog.

    • Year 11: Students in Year 11 will receive a follow-up meeting if needed.

    • All Year Groups: Any student can request a careers meeting. Our Careers Adviser is also available for drop-in sessions during break and lunch times.

    What Are the Benefits of Careers Guidance?

    • Explore Options: Understand the wide range of pathways available, including further education, apprenticeships, and training programs.

    • Set Goals: Develop clear, achievable goals based on individual interests and strengths.

    • Make Informed Decisions: Receive impartial advice to make choices that suit your ambitions.

    • Boost Confidence: Gain reassurance and support during key transition points.

    What to Expect in a Careers Guidance Meeting

    A typical careers guidance meeting lasts around 30 minutes and is tailored to each student’s needs. During the session, students can expect to:

    • Discuss their interests, skills, and aspirations.

    • Explore suitable career options and pathways.

    • Receive advice on subject choices, post-16 and post-18 options, and employment opportunities.

    • Identify resources and tools to further their career research.

    • Create an action plan to support their next steps.

    Our Careers Adviser provides a friendly and supportive environment where students are encouraged to ask questions and explore their future with confidence.

    If you would like to request a careers meeting or have any questions, please visit the Careers Office (under the Library stairs) or contact us at careers@harris.covmat.org

    We look forward to supporting your journey towards a bright future!
