Career Guidance
We aim to help people through some of the most difficult and interesting choices of their lives. This service is directed by Mr. Brian Comerford, a qualified and experienced Guidance Counsellor.
Philosophy
The philosophy of the Guidance Programme is pupil centred.An integral part of the Career Guidance and Counselling Programme involves , careers exhibitions, open days, individual career appointments, inviting guest speakers to the school etc.
