Parents who missed What Subject Choice Really Decides on 27 August have asked us to run it again. Join us on Tuesday 15 September, from 18:00 to 19:00 (SAST).
We'll look at how your child's interests and ability fit their subject choices, which options those choices leave open, and what to do when a choice already made turns out wrong. You can join whether your child is still choosing or has already handed in the form.
This is a live repeat of the first session in Career Conversations in a Changing World, the parent webinar series run by Genius Premium Tuition with About Mind. Each session stands on its own.
What we'll cover
- Reading a subject choice as three layers: interest, ability and future flexibility.
- How much a subject choice really forecloses.
- Why a subject taken to satisfy family expectation tends to cost more than it saves.
- What to do when a choice already made turns out wrong.
- Upgrading or rewriting after school.
