Resources

Explore lesson plans and classroom resources that connect learning to real careers.

	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)
