Schools are a fantastic resource for finding about potential careers, through exposure to a variety of professions and occupations, further information on university courses and apprenticeships, and guidance on how to approach working life. However, as parents, we can also support our children. Jilna Virani is the Trust Careers Lead for the Green School Trust, and has written a clear, and concise article on how to approach discussing careers with your child. Please do take a look and share widely with parents. https://lnkd.in/eHP3Zk7e #CareerDiscussion #ParentalInvolvement #StudentEmpowerment #CareerAwareness #EducationalSupport #CareerDevelopment #FuturePlanning #ParentalGuidance #InformedDecisions #VocationalPathways #CareerConversations #SchoolSupport

Hello, again! We're back! After a complete overhaul and re-design of our website, aboutschools.uk , I am pleased to welcome all parents back to About Schools! Through our free content, we will, of course, continue to help all parents understand how English schools operate, and provide parents with guidance on how best to support your child. All this information is written by senior teachers who continue to work in education, so you can really trust that the information is up-to-date, and comes from a place of real knowledge and understanding. Please do feel free to share widely, we really don't mind! We have quite a few new articles coming out over the next few weeks, so we encourage you to subscribe to our newsletter (please visit our website!), so you don't miss any of the new content. On this note, please do check out our latest article from Kirsty Ridgers, an experienced teacher, pastoral leader and parent. It really is great and gets to the heart of the matter very quickly! Many thanks for all the feedback and support!
