Careers Information for Parents and Carers

At Bullers Wood School, we endeavour to combine our students’ formal education with a personalised, independent and informed career guidance, which will enable them to embark on their future with the skills to build upon their career pathways. Our careers programme aligns with the 8 Gatsby Benchmarks to provide high quality career education and guidance to our students.

If you have any queries, please contact the Careers and Work-related Co-ordinator at lrichardson@bwsgirls.org.
