Motivation, education and beyond for Year 6!

In the Access Higher session this week the children pondered the following questions: 

What’s important to you?

What makes you happy? 

What do you not like?

Then the children looked at their own qualities: 

Skills = Things you can learn 

Qualities = Things that are personal to you and part of what makes you who you are.

Skills you have =  playing an instrument, having a second language, playing a sport for example. 

How do you want to build on these? 

This moved onto finding out what different qualities you need for certain jobs.

Their task was: 

Becoming a career advisor: discuss with a partner what career you might have when you’re older. (What are their interests and qualities and what do you think they should do for a living in the future?)
