Whether your young person knows what subjects they want to choose, or they haven\u2019t given it much thought yet, it\u2019s important that they keep their options open.<\/p>\n

You\u2019ll find lots of useful tools and information on\u00a0your\u00a0career website,\u00a0My World of Work<\/a>, that you can use together to help with these important decisions.<\/p>\n

There\u2019s a dedicated\u00a0section on option choices<\/a>\u00a0with top tips on things to think about and videos to help inspire and learn about different careers.
