Career Spotlight - Social Care & Wellness
The Learning Lounge is focusing its attention on careers this year. Every two months we will be putting a new career into our spotlight. On our career spotlight display, you will find books on a chosen industry, quizzes, career profiles, informative posters and bookmarks which detail the subjects on offer at Toot Hill School which will help you on your way.
Our display is not just for those students immediately thinking about their future, it's for those who are considering their options in Year 9. Our career spotlight can help you determine which GCSE's will be important to your future.
If Social Care & Wellness is not for you, you can still explore our display and take part in our fun quiz to earn 10 credit points.
Stay tuned, as on Monday the 13th of May author and pastoral worker Eve Ainsworth will be visiting the Learning Lounge to talk about both of her careers and on Tuesday the 11th of June Sally Davis from Leap Mindfulness will be joining us to run a wellness session which will be perfect for students who need to unwind from exam stress.
