Students
The world of work is a fast paced and ever changing environment. It is therefore vital that you are fully informed and prepared for making choices regarding your next steps after Monkseaton High School – whether that be at post-16 or post-18. We aim to support you so that the transition from school to the real world is as smooth and uncomplicated as it can be.
Personal Guidance Meetings
All students in years 11 and 13 will have a scheduled 1:1 appointment to discuss future intentions and careers. Your appointment will be passed on to you via your tutor. However, any student that wishes to have a 1:1 personal guidance meeting can do so on request.
To book your 1:1 guidance meeting to talk about careers and future destinations contact Angela Towes at any time (angela.towes@monkseaton.org.uk) or drop into the careers hub in the front atrium area of school.
