    About this ebook

    Written by two experienced career guidance counsellors in an honest and clear style, Sorted! helps parents and secondary school students to negotiate the tricky process of choosing a career. With the intention of removing the stress and complications of making career decisions, Sorted outlines all the different options upon leaving school – higher education, further education, studying abroad, apprenticeships and professional training; explains how to make informed decisions around key areas such as the CAO process and choosing school subjects; explores how natural interests and abilities can lead to an enjoyable and successful career. Sorted! is an essential guide to the world beyond school primarily for parents, but will also prove useful for students, teachers and career guidance counsellors.
