Who can I talk to if I need help in making my decisions?

There are a number of people who can help you:

  • Your careers teacher, form tutor and subject teachers can all help.
  • If you are looking for more detailed guidance you should seek out your Personal Adviser who will spend part of the week in school. They can help with choosing courses, mapping out career options, finance, health etc. E-mail
