Year 11
Each year students receive advice and information from local colleges and Post 16 providers along with their one-to-one career’s advice meetings. During these meetings each student will complete an action plan detailing their research, what they need to know, what they are considering for their Post 16 options. This will include whether they need to make an application through the www.kentchoices.com platform or direct to colleges. The KentChoices website (kentprospectus.co.uk) is an excellent wealth of information for students and parents. Students can also make use of the careers resources in the Learning Resource Centre.
