Careers Information for Students

At Corbridge Middle School, we have high expectations for all our pupils. Whether you are in Year 5 or Year 6 (in the primary phase of education), or you are in Key Stage 3 preparing for the important transition to high school, we believe it is essential that you are well informed about the fast-changing world of work. Our goal is to provide you with the right support at the right time in your school journey, offering personalised guidance to help you make decisions that are best suited to you. You are unique, and it is your responsibility to take ownership of your future.

Our five core values at Corbridge Middle School – Respect, Resilience, Responsibility, Pride, and Care – shape everything we do and guide how we support you in preparing for life beyond school.

Respect

We value you as an individual and the unique contributions you bring to our school community. We expect you to respect the time you have here and those who support you in conversations about careers and the world of work.

Resilience

The world of work is fast-moving and sometimes challenging. At Corbridge Middle School, we encourage you to develop resilience so that you can face new opportunities and obstacles with confidence and determination.

Responsibility

You are responsible for your own future and the decisions you make along the way. We will support you in making informed choices, but ultimately it is up to you to take ownership of your learning and career path.

Pride

We want you to take pride in your achievements, your efforts, and your ambitions. Aspiring high and working hard will help you open doors to a wide range of exciting career possibilities.
