Importance of career day in a school curriculum
While speaking to Briefly News, life orientation educator Lisa Smith shared that the whole purpose of Career Day in a high school curriculum is to:
"Emphasise an active step for high school students to get firsthand knowledge and information directly from the various institutions, stakeholders, and financial aid information necessary for future planning."
The teacher went on to say that many students have a key interest in many career paths but are not "fully aware of what it entails."
Smith also stressed that it can be daunting for high school students to be sure of their future careers by the end of Grade 9.
"They're able to gather information, clearly define their goals and get better direction. At a high school level, Life Orientation teachers can only do so much and career days are the door needed to cement future goals," she added.
She ended by stating that there is more information on academic requirements, financial requirements, and even locations that would best suit the purpose of their career planning or steps to take.
"Firsthand knowledge, experiences, and opinions about which institutions to apply to are better realised at career days."
