Dear Parent/Carer,

I write to inform you about some of the Careers Resources that are available to both you and your child to access from home. I am sure you will recognise that as the main influence in your child’s life it is important you have up to date relevant information.

http://careersbox.co.uk/parentsclub.htm

This free website aimed at parents has some useful videos covering hundreds of different employment and training opportunities throughout the UK.

www.cascaid.co.uk

This careers software tool is aimed at students and uses a child friendly survey to match the likes and dislikes of your child with possible career choices. Your child may already have login details if not he/she will need to create an account using the school login details, if you require these details – please email mhudson@nunthorpe.co.uk

Once an account has been created login details will be sent to the email address and he/she will be able to complete the online survey.

The Life faculty is dedicated to working with parents to ensure your child is well equipped to make well informed realistic decisions about his/her future.

If you have any questions about this or the subject Life please contact me on the above email address.

Yours sincerely

Maria Hudson
Director of Life

    Nunthorpe’s Virtual Learning Environment (VLE)

    I am writing to you to give you more information on Nunthorpe’s Virtual Learning Environment (VLE), Moodle. I am sure many of you have seen your child accessing work through Moodle at home and also want to know more about what it is and how it can be used.

    Moodle is primarily a Learning platform on our school website, which is an online area where students can access work, extend their learning and take part in a wide range of learning activities. All students have a unique login to Moodle which allows them to access the different courses created by their teachers. Within these courses they will find their homework and links to lesson resources and other websites. By accessing Moodle with your child you will be able to find out what he/she is doing in certain lessons and also be able to help keep track of any homework.
