This is a series of careers lessons. They are delivered in tutor time during the Autumn term. They are not aimed at directing students to specific careers but about target and goal setting, understanding where they are and how to develop. The first lesson kicks off with the power of first impressions and the importance of manners. There is a lesson descriptor for display in the tutor room. All lessons are power point presentations. The aim is to motivate and build confidence and independence on their way to the paid world of work. This is part of a series of packages delivered throughout the year.
