How will you make career choices/prepare for work as part of the Haven Curriculum?

Our Careers Lead is Mrs Dodd. She will be happy to speak to you about your career pathway and help you investigate your choices.

Careers experiences at The Haven

You will complete a career pathway which is discussed weekly at keyworker sessions. You will set targets linked to careers every half term and complete work towards this, such as career surveys to investigate what kind of jobs would suit your skills and personality.

There is a careers board in the Hub, which gives students various types of information about moving on from The Haven.

You can visit local colleges and universities, and we will support you to complete applications.

There are also visits to local businesses so that students can experience what it would be like to work in a variety of settings and give them opportunities to ask questions.

Post 16 students are invited to attend work experience placements, and students will be supported to attend.
