We are currently meeting with the Year 11 Students to discuss their post - secondary pathways. We are enjoying talking about their interests and aspirations.

 

Work Experience

 

Work Experience is available to students that are 15 years and older. Please fill in the Expression of Interest (EOI) at each Careers Hub

 

You will need to complete Safe@Work Certificates and your Career Action Plan (CAP) 

If you wish to do your work experience in the building or associated industries, you will also need to complete a White Card – Construction Induction Course. Please ask for help with this.

 

Year 9 Morrisby Profiling

 

Parent permission is now on compass!

 

Year 9 students will again be participating in Morrisby Profiling and interviews.

 

My Career Insights is a program for all Year 9 students in government secondary schools. 

In partnership with the College Careers Advisors this interactive platform provides 

 

Students the opportunity of:

  • Self-discovery
  • Recommended study pathways
  • Career suggestions
  • Applications guidance
  • Action planning
  • Careers advice and support

As part of the program, your child will:

  • Complete a series of online questions and quizzes (on the Morrisby Profile Website) at school.
  • Receive a Morrisby Profile Report showing the results from the questions and quizzes, and possible jobs that match their abilities, interests and personality.
  • Have a 30-minute meeting with a Morrisby-trained Career Practitioner, who will explain the report to your child. 

The cost of registration and testing is currently subsidised in Year 9. You can complete the profiling at a later date but you MUST register in Year 9 to take advantage of the fee free registration. If you don’t register in Year 9 but wish to complete the profiling in later years a fee will be payable by the parent/guardian.

 

Please contact the Careers Team if you require further information.
