It’s almost option choice time for S2 pupils at Auchenharvie Academy. Find out about the help and support available from Skills Development Scotland
Whether your young person knows what subjects they want to choose, or they haven’t given it much thought yet, it’s important that they keep their options open.
You’ll find lots of useful tools and information on your career website, My World of Work, that you can use together to help with these important decisions.
There’s a dedicated section on option choices with top tips on things to think about and videos to help inspire and learn about different careers. The Option Choices tool can also help them explore the jobs their choices could lead to. And you can find more support in our parents and carers’ guide to option choices.
Your Skills Development Scotland careers adviser in school can also provide support to help them think about their option choices. There’s also the opportunity for you – as a parent or carer – to speak to their careers adviser too.
There is also a webinar on the 3rd of December for parents and carers of S1 to S3 pupils giving some advice about option choices and highlighting the support available from Skills Development Scotland careers advisers at this important time. Register for the webinar
