Parents

Careers Education

The Careers information, Education, Advice and Guidance which all students receive at SJBC will be communicated to parents through letters home, ParentMail,  and parents’ information evenings.

At SJBC we have a robust careers programme that is delivered to students across the school, year-on-year, in the form of speakers, workshops and trips where students can apply knowledge and understanding from the classroom to the real world.

We welcome and appreciate parental support at each transition stage from Year 7 to 13. 

The websites below can equip parents to guide and work with their child in the career decision-making process.
