Choosing the right high school can make the difference between a happy and successful academic future for your child and years of declining marks followed by poor career prospects. There are two main things to consider when choosing a high school: 1. Is this school a good fit for my child’s personality, interests, abilities? (Happiness factor) […]

If you took a whole bunch of photos of yourself you would be able to see that even though they are all different, they are still all uniquely “you”. As you study the pictures you will see yourself with different profiles – a different part of your face showing, a different tilt of your head. You are still the same person but you look different depending on the angle. A School Leaver CV or Personal Profile is a description of you.
