Time is March-ing on...

A reminder about the University Planning Calendar for Years 11-13
Year 12 - Remember the planning calendar you were given at the start of year 11? Well, the March - June entry is:

Evaluate Higher Education Destinations (with help from parents, HE Counsellor & teachers) and decide broadly WHERE you want to study post-school.

March is also a great month to ...

  • Update your Gateway comments! For Year 12 - add your ideas and information on what you are considering in terms of higher education and careers. For Year 13 - make sure your information on applications and offers is up-to-date.
  • Write your CV. Ask around now to see if you can line-up some work experience during your breaks... There is also a talk coming up on how to write a resume - keep an eye on the bulletin for details.
  • Think about university visits you might be doing while out on the Easter/End of Term break - what questions will you ask? Come to the Higher Education Office for help - we have lots of resources to get you thinking.
  • Attend the university presentations we have on here at school. - Check out the weekly Higher Education News for details of who, what, where and when!
