Careers Resources
Welcome to our dedicated careers resources page for parents of George Green's students. We understand that the future of your children is a top priority and navigating the world of careers and colleges can be overwhelming.
Our aim is to support you and your child through this crucial period of decision making. We offer a wide range of resources, from individual guidance sessions to informative workshops, all designed to equip your child with the knowledge and skills they need to make informed choices about their future. We believe that with the right support, every student can find a career path that suits their interests and abilities.
Once registered, you will build your profile by identifying which skills and qualities you are strongest in, these are then “matched” to jobs you maybe suited to in the future. You will engaged with planned careers modules during your PSHCE programme with this being recorded in your “profile” on Start.
Delve deeper into the information to find out how many opportunities there maybe locally, what other jobs are similar and actual job openings. Discover what labour markets (LMI) are growing locally, nationally and internationally and what routes you could take at each transition. From A Levels to BTECs’ to T-Levels and Apprenticeships all the information is covered as part of our school career journey and mapped on Start.
However, with this website you can return to your profile repeatedly, as your skills develop and ideas change. Update your interests and change your skills and add more experiences as you move through your school careers journey.
Within George Green’s School Careers programme, students are provided with multiple opportunities to access impartial and independent advice and guidance.
Working directly with Tower Hamlets Careers Service and the Young WorkPaths team based in the heart of our borough, this team of fully qualified career professional provide our students with impartial guidance needed to make a success transition from school to further education, training or employment.
Students are given the opportunity to access this support and at key transition points in years 11 and throughout the sixth form. Students are provided with the opportunity for either individual guidance or small group guidance dependent upon their need in year 11 and again within the sixth form.
In addition to this, they are supported by the pastoral teams in the form of their Tutors, Year Lead, Careers Lead and other key members of the school community.
If students need extra support beyond what has been mentioned, please contact our Careers Lead Ms. Firdawsi Ahmed, who will be able to arrange any additional support that may be available.
