Pathways & Careers

Every student from Year 10 to Year 13 will be actively involved in planning their future learning and career goals through the Career Central platform. Career Central is a comprehensive online tool that allows students to develop an understanding of their identity over time, in order to transition from KingsWay into confident and connected life-long learners.

Please note that in order to have an appointment with Cherie, all students must complete Steps 1 & 2 of their Career Central profile, and their bulls-eye assessment (yellow icon at bottom of home page) before attending. Click on the link below for Career Central, then use Microsoft login details.
