DT Careers card game
Pupils design and create their own playing cards relating to job roles. They then research the different qualifications needed to apply for those roles. There are fun elements added to the game also, to keep the pupils interested.
There are instructions on how to create and play the game. I have also created example playing cards that you could use instead of having the pupils design their own if you wish.
This game could easily be adapted for any subject, to include any careers.
The pupils absolutely loved this task and it got them thinking of career paths and what qualifications they need to gain.
My resources always take me a long time to prepare, so if you’d like to leave a kind review, it would be most appreciated.
