2 A foreword from John Wilson As senior pupils in East Renfrewshire Schools, you will be looking towards the future and thinking of life beyond schooluniversity, college, a career. Our Vocational Programme provides you with the opportunity to focus in on that choice by participating in a related course or to widen your horizons by trying something completely different. Either way this is a real chance to have a quality experience provided by one of our partner colleges, universities or employers. This booklet sets out the many opportunities provided through our Vocational Programme. It provides the detailed information to help you, supported by your parents and carers and advised by school staff, to make the right choice. You will have the chance to meet our course providers at an information evening in March. The Vocational Programme has expanded considerably in recent years and provides high quality opportunities targeted to meet the broadest range of pupil needs. If you require additional support in school that can also be provided in your vocational course. Our schools work very closely with our providers to ensure that the vocational experience is a positive one for everyone involved. In East Renfrewshire Council we are proud of our record in achieving positive destinations for the vast majority of pupils on leaving school. Our Vocational Programme plays a considerable part in this success by helping to develop the relevant skills and experiences which will stand you in good stead beyond school. The programme is developed with an eye to future job opportunities and to the needs of employers – we want to make sure it delivers the best possible outcomes for you. Good luck with your choice and I am sure you will enjoy the experience! John Wilson OBE Director of Education
