Careers News
Year 10 students have started to explore and investigate their career pathways with an online Careers exploration tool called ‘My Career Match’.
Students complete a short survey about their working preferences before being directed to various career pathways that might suit their interests.
The students have been emailed their results so ask your son to forward you the email. My Career Match encourages students to explore their options and is general in nature.
Students also signed up to Job Jump. This website has everything you need to know about University and ATARS, UAC, TAFE, Apprenticeships etc.
Sign up details for parents are in the Careers Newsletter.
