Happy New Year
Blwyddyn Newydd Dda
This Newsletter is appropriate for all of our learners, but there are some sections specifically targeted to certain Year Groups.
Our VISION for Careers and Work-Related Education in Crickhowell High School
Our CWRE will ensure effective, careers education and guidance is provided and is inclusive for all students. It will help to develop the skills that students need in the world of work and challenge their preconceptions and stereotypes, by raising their aspirations and making them fully aware of the opportunities available in the education system and within the world of work.
We will provide the support and guidance to help them to make informed decisions about their future pathways and lifestyle expectations. We will include our local community and external partners to support the provision, alongside using the 12 pedagogical principles to engage learners to develop an enquiring mindset. Feedback from learners, staff and stakeholders will be regularly collated, evaluated and utilised to ensure continuous improvement is evident.
