Parents, Carers & Employer Engagement

Parents/Carers

Parents and carers play a significant role in helping students make informed choices about their study options and decisions about their future careers. Parents and carers are encouraged to talk with their child about their options and future aspirations. We value parents and carers input and encourage you to attend activities at school such as GCSE and A Level options evenings.  We would also appreciate any offers of help with future events such as our Careers Carousel and Mock Interview day.

Should you wish to discuss your child’s future please contact their form tutor in the first instance, or Mrs Gaulton, our Careers Leader & Careers Adviser via email at admin@st-maryshigh.herts.sch.uk

Employer Engagement

We recognise and value the importance of working with local employers to support our career provision at the school. We are extremely keen to establish links with employers who will be able to enrich our students’ education and show them new possibilities within the world of work. We engage with over 100 different employers through work experience placements for our year 10 students. We welcome further support from employers specifically those within the law industry.

For next academic year we are seeking employers to support our Careers Carousel, Year 10 work experience, year 12 work placements and mock interview day. If you can help us with any of these events please contact Kerry Gaulton, Careers Leader & Careers Adviser at admin@st-maryshigh.herts.sch.uk
