We also have our own dedicated careers advisor: Ms Lawrence

Appointments are available during lesson times and there is also a ‘drop-in’ facility at break time and lunch time. The Careers room is the interview room on the second floor, opposite the lift.
If you would like an appointment, please ask your tutor or speak to Mrs Lovelace and they will pass a message to Mel Lawrence.
