What’s your plan after school – Post School Pathways
St Mungo’s students have many different career aspirations and can leave school when they reach 16 years of age. Throughout S1 – S6, we regularly ask students to explore different career options and pathways to make sure that they are informed of all opportunities available to them.
LOOK AT EACH PATHWAY BELOW ALONGSIDE SOME ‘TYPICAL’ ENTRY QUALIFICATION REQUIREMENTS FOR EACH STAGE (THESE ARE NOT FIXED, BUT GIVE A GENERAL IDEA) AND HELP YOU CONSIDER AND PLAN FOR DIFFERENT PATHWAYS. MAKE SURE YOU CHECK THE DEFINITE QUALIFICATIONS REQUIRED BEFORE APPLYING.
Further advice can be found by clicking the Learn more hyperlinks at the bottom of each pathway. Info current at time of writing.
