Resources

	What does work actually look like? (Part 1) Most adults didn't plan their way into the job they're doing now - careers are journeys of discovery, not predictions. This activity uses astronaut Meganne Christian's story to introduce that idea, and sets up an interview homework that bridges into Part 2. Years 7-9 • Encounters with employers and employees (GB5) • Living in the wider world (PSHE)
	Getting started with Suggestions No one can tell you who you are or what you'll love. In this activity students take a short reflective quiz that produces a personalised list of videos and careers to explore - a starting point for discovery, not an answer about what they should do. Years 7-11 • Addressing the needs of each pupil (GB3) • Living in the wider world (PSHE)
	Jobs that use Geography (Year 9) Geography opens doors to a surprising range of careers - from climate science and city planning to disaster relief, cartography, logistics, and tourism. This lesson plan will help you to show Year 9 students where Geography can take them. Year 9 • Geography • Linking curriculum learning to careers (GB4)
	Why study A-Level Geography? (Year 11) Post-16 choices shouldn't be made on syllabus details alone. This lesson plan will help you to show Year 11 students whether A-Level Geography or another post-16 route fits them best, drawing on the jobs it leads to and the skills it builds. Year 11 • Geography • Linking curriculum learning to careers (GB4)
