I would like to form a partnership with parents who may be willing to give up an hour of their time during the school day to give a talk or presentation regarding their experiences and their careers.
If you yourselves are not able to attend, but can arrange for someone from your career area to attend, this is perfectly fine.
I intend to approach various facilities myself, but you as parents have a wealth of information that can be shared with the students. I would also like to cover as many career/work paths as possible.
As far as the commitment is concerned, it would be for one hour and once in an Academic Year initially.
Year 9 have to select their study options in the Third term and guidance as to what subjects are necessary will obviously come from ourselves, but you can also guide them by providing them with insights into the various careers.
If you are willing to consider working with us in this venture, and EVERY career path is equally important, please contact either myself or Mr Akinyemi in the Admin office.
I look forward to hearing from as many of you as possible.
Best regards,
Kenneth Sugden
Head Teacher
