At our school, we recognise that parental engagement is vital to the success of our Careers Education program. Parents and guardians play a pivotal role in guiding and supporting their children’s educational and career journeys, and we are committed to fostering a collaborative relationship built on open communication and mutual support.
_____________________________________________________________________________________________
We strive to maintain a transparent and accessible dialogue between the school and parents. By sharing regular updates on our Careers Education curriculum, activities, and resources, we aim to equip parents with the information they need to support their children’s exploration of career pathways. We value the unique insights and aspirations parents hold for their children and actively seek their input to help shape the direction of our program.
We encourage parents to engage in meaningful discussions at home about their children’s strengths, interests, and ambitions, complementing the concepts explored in our Careers Education curriculum. These conversations are instrumental in helping students make informed and confident decisions about their future pathways.
By working together, we can provide students with a holistic understanding of their opportunities and empower them to pursue successful and fulfilling futures. Our goal is to nurture a culture where parents are valued partners in preparing students for the challenges and opportunities that lie beyond school.
