This booklet aims to help support our students to ensure they are able to build on their Career management competencies and have the necessary skills to transition effectively into the world of work or further tertiary study.

There are three career management competencies:

Developing self- awareness: Competencies that enable young people to understand themselves and the influences on them.

Exploring Opportunities: Competencies that enable young people to investigate opportunities in learning and work, and relate them to themselves.

Deciding and Acting: Competencies that enable young people to make and adjust their plans, to manage change and transition, and to take appropriate action.

To support the decision-making process there are two evenings you might wish to attend.

The first is the Pathways Information Evening where tertiary providers will display their learning pathways and answer any questions.

Date: Thursday 26 July 2018 Time: 5.30pm – 7.30pmVenue: Marjory Adams Hall

The second is the Senior Options Evening where teachers will be available to discuss programmes being offered in 2017:

Date: Thursday 2 August 2018 Time: 6.00pm-7.30pm Venue: Marjory Adams Hall

Other useful tools for helping students develop self-awareness and explore opportunities are Career Central, an online career development management portfolio with a number of career research mechanisms and online career tools, the Where to? posters which show the pathways available from different learning areas and the Profile Builder which is part of the Vocational pathways award system and enables Year 12 and 13 students to check that their school subjects meet the recommended industry sector standards for their intended career pathways. Please read the separate sections on these to gain further information.

CAREER CENTRAL

In 2018 we are introducing a new online career programme across Year 11 and 12 at EGGS. All students have a unique logon using their student ID and their Kamarpassword. Students are able to research career pathways, complete activities to identify their strengths, values, interests, and skills, set goals, write CV’s and much, much more. Students are also able to see the notes and share them with you from career conversations with either of the schools two qualified Career practitioners; Ms Lila Pulsford or Ms Philippa Leask.

WHERE TO?Where to? Posters are a valuable resource for seeing where subject areas can lead to. Each of the posters has been well researched by Careers NZ and has icons pertaining to green jobs and jobs in long term skill shortage. This outlook is particularly useful to plan whether studying a degree course is useful for actual employment outcomes in the future.

Career research theory tells us that most students cement their career ideas around 15-16 although some can be as late as in their early twenties. Our recommendation is that students pick a subject because they enjoy it and can see several pathways that they may be interested in rather than focussing on one. The “putting all your eggs in one basket” approach can be quite stressful, if they don’t fulfil all the criteria, or they change their mind. It is also good to look at all the levels of ability so they can see that no matter what level they personally are at that there is a pathway for them.

The Career Centre is open to all students at EGGS, and assists students to develop their lifelong career competencies. Students are encouraged to develop self-awareness as well as opportunity awareness. Our goal is for students to feel hopeful and positive about their future opportunities and we encourage our students to consider wide and diverse career interests know that every career is of value.

Every Year 13 students at EGGS is invited to engage with the Career Centre; all students are welcome to see the careers staff by request.

If you would like to make an appointment to see either Ms Pulsford or Ms Leask, please email [email protected].

GUARANTEED ENTRY SCORE RANK SCORE CALCULATIONS

A Rank Score has been added to the New Zealand University Entrance requirement to enable universities to select students into courses. The universities who currently use this score or a Guaranteed Entry Score are The University of Auckland, AUT, Victoria University, Massey University, Canterbury University and the University of Otago. Please note that Otago, Massey and Canterbury have added the rank score as a series of guaranteed entry points that students can obtain prior to applying. It may be possible to gain entry with basic UE but the Rank Score gives them guaranteed or preferential entry.

Also note that individual degree programmes may have specific additional subject and/or level requirements. Year 13 students should aim to take at least 4 approved subjects for University Entrance to keep their options open. This means that Year 11 and 12 students need to plan subject pathways ahead so that they are able to take at least 4 approved subjects in Year 13.

Rank Score is based on the following:

Top 80 credits in up to 5 approved subjects X 2 for Achieved = 160 pointsX 3 for Merit = 240 pointsX 4 for Excellence = 320 points

The University of Auckland also has the Table A and B system for some of their programme entry criteria requirements. Commerce, Architecture, Health Sciences, Nursing, and Property. Please check the specific faculty requirements.

VOCATIONAL PATHWAYS

Vocational Pathways give a new and clearer framework for vocational options and programmes. The pathways help students thinking about their future options to see which subjects and standards they should study to achieve their career goals. They are designed to improve relevance of learning for students, support programme design and careers advice, and improve the links between education and employment. The Vocational Pathways have been developed through a partnership between government agencies, the industry training sector, secondary and tertiary educators, and industry and employer representatives.


Achieving credits towards Vocational Pathways means students are developing foundation skills and knowledge in areas that employers value. Students can work towards the vocational pathway(s) by gaining credits from the achievement standards and unit standards recommended by the sectors.
