Careers Parent and Carer Area

“80.75% of students say their parents help them to make key careers decisions”

This section of the Rawlins website is aimed at helping parents and carers source information to help support young people in their future decisions.  Below you will find three helpful sections; information about education options, types of jobs and local opportunities. Talkling futures provide free resources, activities and practical guidance to help you support your child’s careers and education choices.

Types of jobs

Pupils and students who have a vision of where they want to be in the future may find it easier to plan their next steps more easily. To help pupils, students and parents to get an idea of what types of jobs are out there we would suggest looking at a number of these websites:

Local Opportunities

With developments in technology there are now numerous jobs that did not exist 10 years ago. It is important to keep up to date with what is happening locally, nationally and internationally.  In regard to local opportunities, the Leicester and Leicestershire Enterprise Partnership (LLEP) are leading the way in a number of exciting developments with a range of sectors including space, low carbon, and digital.  Click the links below for more information.

Below you will find some useful posters and booklets to understand the different qualifications, our pupil and students’ career journey and other resources.
