Sixth Form Careers
“Life is like a box of chocolates.” Forrest Gump
It's like Forrest Gump said, 'Life is like a box of chocolates.' Your career is like a box of chocolates - you never know what you're going to get. But everything you get is going to teach you something along the way and make you the person you are today. That's the exciting part - it's an adventure in itself. (Nick Carter)
Sixth form careers lessons are based around the principal of introducing girls to various opportunities both within school and outside of school. Careers has a great overlap with Lower Sixth Enrichment sessions which are provided on a weekly basis.
In Lower Sixth girls gain an insight into the huge array of opportunities which are available to them once they leave The Ladies' College at the end of Upper Sixth.
In Upper Sixth girls focus their attention on what they want to do once they leave. For many of our girls this is going through the process of applying to University. Girls are given lots of assistance with their personal statement and each girl has an interview and a unique reference written for them; regardless of whether they are going to University or not.
