Future Pathways

Our experienced Future Pathways team help students chart a course from school to their career aspirations.

Staff work with students to discover their unique skillset, identify potential pathways and support them to achieve those educational or employment goals.

Our team can advise students on university course selections and scholarships, provides work placement experiences or Trades training, and even facilitate tertiary study at school.

Aquinas Future Pathways is the first step on your child’s career journey. Visit the Future Pathways office in the Library or book an appointment via email or Schoolbridge.
