Careers
Whatever their aspirations beyond school, students receive
one-to-one guidance and careers advice to help them make
informed decisions which will serve them well for life.
Our experienced and qualified careers advisor works with
house staff to help students make informed choices about
subjects, courses and careers. Starting in the Third Year
we begin a structured careers programme to enable each
student to reach their personal potential and offer advice and
guidance to help them reach their individual career goals.
The school hosts regular career talks to inspire and inform
students about the various opportunities open to them.
Specialist advice is available for applications to Oxbridge and
competitive courses and for students planning to take a gap
year or study abroad.
The Careers department continues to support students after
they leave school, with the Careers and Business Network
offering lifelong advice to help members thrive in a highly
competitive working world. It’s open to OPs, current and
former parents and the wider school community. Whether
members and older students are seeking advice, inspiration,
potential business opportunities or shared experiences, they
are invited to network and socialise at our regular meetings
held around the country.
