At XP we have always had careers at the heart of our expeditions whether it’s working together with experts, out on fieldwork or creating our products. Given the importance of our career, its time to further develop and improve our programme throughout the school, not forgetting our new XP16 provision

I would like to invite you check out our NEW XP Careers HQ Website

The website gives information on our career policy and programme we offer, helpful links and tools to aid guidance in GCSE options, post-16 & post-18 opportunities including university, apprenticeships & jobs of the future as well as details of careers related events happening throughout the school.  This website is designed to be continuously updated to make sure our learners:

• Raise aspirations
• Develop confidence in making decisions and career choices
• Develop an understanding of the world of work and how to respond to changes in today’s workplace

Please explore the website and I hope you find it useful when supporting our young people with these all important decisions.  I would appreciate feedback on the website and please, do not hesitate to contact me (Dany Green) as the school’s career lead, at dgreen@xpschool.org

Enjoy!

On Tuesday 4th February we would like to invite you to school for the X23’s work placement information evening at 5.30pm. The evening will provide you with information on the work experience process including 1:1 career advice available in school, expectations, finding a placement, roles and duties as well as the all important health & safety measures of the placement.

XP school is working together with NYBEP to support you child through the process in allocating a meaningful placement to best suit their individual career aspirations.  If you have any questions throughout this process please do not hesitate to contact the XP Careers Lead, Dany Green.

In addition we would like to ask you for your support in finding work placements for our learners.  If you run a small business and would like to have a work placement student for one week in July, please let us know either on the information evening or email Dany Green on dgreen@xpschool.org

Looking forward to seeing you all there

On Wednesday 29th January students will be performing in the Nexus Dance performance at Hall Cross Upper school. Due to our success at the school games I thought it would be a great idea for them to perform this routine to others dance companies and schools. We will be leaving straight from school on the school minibus. The show is 6-8pm. Students have received 2 tickets each if you would like anymore tickets they are £3 on the door.

Any questions please email me on cogrady@xpschool.org

My apologies but we have had to cancel the NCS parent’s information evening tomorrow night due to a football match being played at Doncaster Rovers which means the car parks will not be available.

We have rearranged the evening now to Thursday 6th February at 5.30-6.30.

We are sorry for the inconvenience this may cause.

Many thanks.

See the attached letter from Mrs Green about the upcoming Parents Evening for Careers.
