Futures (10FTRS)
Course Outline
The aim of this course is to encourage students to consider life beyond the immediate. The modules covered centre on the belief that well-informed planning is an evolving process that concerns the whole person in the ever-changing contexts of her life. It includes creative combinations of options that fit with personal preferences, external influences and at its core is self-knowledge.
Designed and delivered by the Careers, Personalised Learning and Guidance staff , the modules include:
- focusing on engaging students in communities of enquiry around some of the issues that will confront them now and in the future
- enabling students to engage with their futures by analysing the past and critiquing the present using creative thinking, metacognitive strategies and questioning techniques
- personal identity, relationships and values and their impact on future choices
- qualities of resilience
- decision-making
- work interests, including computer-based interest and ability inventories
- CV production
The course runs for half a term and is delivered to the students in the same term as they attend Kahunui.
