Employability Skills

We firmly believe that all students need to be equipped with the employability skills that will enable them to succeed in a fast changing global market and foster adaptability so that students can transfer their skills into new environments.

Employability depends on your knowledge, skills and attitudes, how you use those assets, and how you present them to employers.

‘As part of our careers programme, students have a designated time each week to develop key employability skills to prepare them for the world of work and future careers. In all lessons we expect students to be provided with opportunities to develop these personal qualities, this may be through group work, organising teams, presenting to the class, meeting deadlines and evaluating their own and others work.’

The following display is visible at the front of every classroom, to help teachers and students to make links to employability skills in subjects across the whole curriculum:
