Parent & Carer Resources
We understand that, as a parent or carer, you want to play an active role in shaping your child’s future. At Skinners’, we aim to support you by providing the information and tools needed to understand the options available and the guidance surrounding careers.
Below you will find our resource area, which includes easy-to-understand information on a range of topics. These resources are designed to help you and your child start conversations about goals, aspirations and making informed decisions about future education and career pathways.
If you would like to refer your child for a one-to-one appointment with a Careers Advisor, please contact the Careers Team using the details on this page. We will do our best to arrange an in-person appointment during school hours. Please note that we already provide scheduled career meetings throughout the year for students in Years 11, 12 and 13.
