It is an integral part of the Learning for Life and Work programme which begins in Year 8. The aims of this programme are to stimulate, encourage and develop within each student:

An understanding of the stages within the personal career planning process.
The knowledge of the wide variety of careers information available and the skills required to utilise these effectively in the personal planning process.
