Careers

For the first time all year levels have made a start to move to the new Edu Pass system to engage in the Education Departments Career Insights, this program will support the Career Action Plan online digital portfolio and many more resources and process that will accompany student’s throughout their education journey. It is a really valuable process and is available as the foundation or ongoing career investigation and goal setting. I work closely with Junior and Senior schools to ensure we have follow up and all students have an opportunity to discuss any questions they have.

Students can give permission for Parental, Carer access. Please take the time to talk to your students about this and contact me if you would like more information or are having trouble accessing the site.

Last week our year nine student’s completed the Morrisby Online program as part of the Year 9 Career Insights program. The Morrisby is a great tool and can be reviewed at any time, it supports student engagement, decisions about future subject selection, work experience choices and career investigation.

We will be undertaking some follow up activities in term two to get students thoughts and reflection on the process and how we can ensure they are getting the full benefit to guide their careers and education moving forward.

I will follow up with any students who were absent for the interviews last week, and will arrange another time to meet and go through their report (parents are encouraged to attend these sessions). I am also available to discuss further any questions that student’s parents and carers have about the report and this process.

Year 10 students - Work Experience

Congratulation to those Year 10 students who have organised their work experience placement. Well done!

Work Experience is the final week of term 2; June 22 – 26. This will come around very fast. Please support your child to get organised.

I am available to support students to find a placement; I do not find the placement.

Part of the journey is student’s initiating the investigation, making contact, following up and persisting to arrange a placement. Encourage and assist your child to investigate; do not do it for them, sometimes the getting there and the hurdles are the most valuable experience.

I am available lunch times Monday – Thursday and am happy to meet with students after school. Please contact me careers@scoresbysc.vic.edu.au if you have any questions.

The Career newsletter is uploaded weekly to the careers website; https://scoresbysccareers.com/, it has loads of interesting information please also take the time to have a look at the careers website.

Hard copies of the newsletter are available in the careers room and senior school hub. A copy will be emailed to all senior school students via their Scoresby email address.
