Parent support and guidance


Our careers strategy is presented here. Please take time to view the careers strategy to see what careers learning is available in each year group.  We are passionate at Prince Henry's about seeking feedback on our careers programme from parents.  We would really appreciate your feedback on our programme.  If you would like to provide your feedback, fill out the form here.  We will then reflect on our programme and make ongoing improvements.

To give parents an insight into careers learning opportunities we have collated a range of resources which can be used to develop knowledge and understanding of careers. Explore the resources in each link and contact us if you need any further help and guidance.

Useful links – General

Unifrog                               

An online platform which enables students to learn more about a huge variety of careers, personality preferences and how this links to careers, how to write a CV, how to apply for university, apprenticeships and T levels, among so much more.    Students use Unifrog throughout their time at PHGS.

We have set up a parent login so that you can use Unifrog as if you were a student yourself, allowing you to truly support your child. The form code you need is: PHGSPARENTS50 (case sensitive)
