Creating Optimal Pathways Towards Success: A Guide for Teens and Their Parents

FREE Talk: 1st February 2017, 7-9.30pm at St George’s School, Harpenden, Herts

This aspirational FREE talk will be run by Dr Kathy Weston of , in association with 91ÖÆÆ¬ Education.

Making any decision that affects your future can be understandably difficult for young people. Parents can struggle too, as they help their children decide on which route to take. This can be because they genuinely have no idea what is best for them, little understanding of the exam or school system and even less of an understanding of a job market that seems to change all the time. Unfortunately, we know from a YouGov survey (2013) that over a third of secondary school pupils use television programmes to help them to decide what jobs to do after leaving school. Celebrities are also a popular choice with young people for inspiring decisions about the future.

Aspirational mentor, Dr Kathryn Weston brings you her best evidence-based tips in this exciting talk that covers:

  • How to recognise your strengths and use them to shape your future
  • How to approach decisions about your education (e.g. GCSE or A-level subject choices)
  • Why exams matter and how to approach them
  • The purpose of revision and how parents can help
  • Factors that can jeopardise your future

This talk has been specially designed for parents and their teens to attend together. Recommended for ages 14+.   To book on to this FREE talk, click below – spaces are limited:
