At Silcoates School, we are committed to providing a supportive and engaging environment for our students to explore, learn, and build the foundations for their successful futures.
Your child’s journey to a bright future starts here at Silcoates.
Welcome to the Silcoates’ Careers Suite – A Gateway to Informed Futures
At Silcoates, we understand the importance of guiding our pupils towards successful and fulfilling careers. Our newly opened Careers Suite is dedicated to delivering comprehensive careers information, advice, and guidance to all pupils, aligning with government guidelines and the Gatsby Benchmarks. Mrs Corrina Slaski, our Level 6 qualified Careers Adviser, is based here and is committed to providing tailored support to each pupil.
Services and Support
In our accessible Careers Suite, we host lunchtime "drop-in" sessions, encouraging pupils to bring their questions and seek guidance at any time. Students can request a careers interview, ensuring support is readily available when needed. The Careers Suite also offers a quiet space for online interviews or assessments, accommodating the diverse needs of our students.
Parents are welcome to connect with Mrs Slaski directly, should they have any questions about careers support.
Unifrog at Silcoates
Silcoates has recently invested in Unifrog, an acclaimed online platform designed to assist students in making
well-informed decisions about their futures. Tailored tools spanning from Years 7 to 13 enable pupils to compare every undergraduate course in the UK and explore international opportunities. Unifrog is the go-to place for comprehensive lists of live apprenticeships, Higher and Degree apprenticeships, and other Further Education courses. The platform also assists in creating essential application materials such as CVs and Personal Statements, and facilitating the Work Experience process.
Through engaging quizzes based on personality, skills, interests, and work environment, Unifrog enables pupils to explore subject and career pathways. Pupils are able to conduct detailed research on careers, understand diverse routes, and document all their career interactions and significant moments in one place.
Key Careers Events
We ensure that pupils across different year groups benefit from tailored activities to guide them in their career choices.
Careers Bulletins
We are thrilled to launch this regular school publication.
It is designed to keep you up to date with the latest careers events and activities taking place both within and beyond the School gates.
