Careers Guidance and Access for Education and Training Providers 

The careers curriculum for the King David High School has been redesigned following feedback from students and parents.

As a school, we aim to provide our students with the core employability skills needed for the world of work and to demonstrate the vast number of opportunities available, so that we can help them aspire to the best of their ability. This is achieved through a diverse careers programme that focuses on the needs and developmental stages of each year group.

​The guidance Students receive is a mix of internal and external activities; demonstrating the strong relationships that school has with outside agencies and business experts.
