Mrs Aliberti has been busy in the Horizons Department over the last few weeks! Our Upper Sixth pupils have now all sent off their UCAS applications and there is a real buzz as they receive their offers! Meanwhile our Form 5 (Yr 11) pupils have been involved in guidance interviews with FutureSmart Careers, where they can speak to an independent advisor about their future choices, university aspirations and career choices; and pupils across the Senior School have taken part in a series of team building workshops.
Form 5 pupils got involved in ‘The Apprentice meets Dragon’s Den’, where they had to create innovative business ideas (these included a drone delivery service and sleep pods for exhaused NHS staff) and pitch them to other teams for investment! Form 3 looked at decision making strategies to work through real life moral decisions while Form 2 worked in teams to discover the skills needed for different careers (they made some fantastic origami birds and spaghetti towers!) and Form 1 studied personality types as they looked into how different personalities are suited to certain careers.
