Each year, we organise a Career Quest session for Year 10 students to equip them with the knowledge and understanding required for effective career planning. The programme connects students with professionals from diverse fields, enabling them to explore different career pathways through interactive and meaningful discussions.
The sessions focus on key aspects of career exploration, including the subjects required for different professions, the benefits of internships, the scope and market value of careers, employment opportunities, and the potential challenges associated with different professions.
Over the years, we have welcomed professionals from fields including Clinical Psychology, Communication Graphics, Computer Science, Entrepreneurship, Engineering, Film Making, Journalism, Midwifery, Mixed Media Art, Architecture, Law, Textile Design, Business Development, and Robotics. The speakers generously share their professional experiences, insights, and advice, helping students develop a more realistic understanding of different career pathways.
For Year 8 students, we organise an in-house career guidance session led by senior and experienced teachers. The session supports students in making an informed decision about choosing between the Humanities and Science faculties for Year 9.
These sessions encourage students to consider careers based on their interests and strengths rather than social or peer pressure. They gain a better understanding of the subjects, skills, qualifications, employment opportunities, and challenges associated with different professions, enabling them to make more informed decisions about their academic and career pathways.
