Welcome to the Careers Department Pages

St Peter’s aims to give every student the opportunity to fulfil their potential in the career path they choose. We do this through a programme of activities which helps you to choose the 14-19 pathways best suited to your individual aspirations and by developing the skills which will enable you to manage your career throughout your life.

We provide a programme of careers education, information, advice and guidance for all students (years 7-13) in partnership with other agencies but primarily with Connexions Gloucester.
