Career Counsellors

Helping students make informed decisions, GESS’ dedicated team of career counsellors runs signature annual activities, such as the University Career Fair. This year, there were more than 70 academic institutions on campus to speak with students and parents, and a Career Information Exchange where children interacted with industry partners. With a strong alumni network, GESS’ Alumni Programme lets former pupils share insights and advice with current ones.

The school personalises the programme to every student’s needs promoting a truly positive learning culture. With the right guidance, students learn to set effective goals for themselves, have periodic reviews and receive the necessary tools to progress, personally and academically. These life skills will stand them in good stead in the years to come.
