Tue 04 Mar 2025
The Parents’ Guide To helps parents and carers with clear, unbiased advice on post-school options, study and exam revision, and wellbeing.

Created in partnership with National Careers Week, this guide supports young people in talking about their futures.

National Careers Week (NCW) is a week long celebration shining a light on career pathways. It’s an ideal time for parents to find out more about what choices your teen has after GCSE and sixth form. There’s plenty of options, so how do you know what’s right for your child? In this guide, we’ll highlight some of the options available and suggest different ways you can help your teen decide what suits them best.

The Parents’ Guide to is here to support parents of teens. We provide parents with advice on all the options after GCSE and sixth form, as well as teenage health and wellbeing.
