Careers / Staff
We want to make sure we are providing you with the support and information you need to help students with their progression beyond Varndean. If there is a student who you feel needs an appointment with the Careers Team, they can make their own appointment on ‘my varndean’. All notes from the careers meeting will be available on Unifrog. Please make sure the student knows about all the resources available for them on the ‘Student’ area under the ‘Careers’ tab on the college website and on the Careers google site available on ‘my varndean’. Many students find ‘Unifrog’ very helpful too; this is a ‘one stop’ covering all options and relevant resources – they will need to create their own account to use it. It is available for staff to use as well.
