CAREER READY
There will be a parents’ information evening for S4 parents on Tuesday March 8th to find out about Career Ready. This is a scheme for pupils in S5/6 to prepare them better for the world of work. Pupils receive mentoring from someone in business; they attend masterclasses and do a four week paid internship. This will be the third group of pupils to be part of these schemes from Speyside High. The first cohort are coming to the end of their experience and have benefitted greatly from their experiences in terms of confidence, maturity and a better knowledge of themselves and what will be expected of them in employment. One pupil has gained employment through being part of the scheme and he will speak about his experience on the evening along with other pupils. If you are an S4 parent who would like to find out more but you are unable to attend please contact Mr Picksley at school.
