Today’s students have an exceptional array of options available to them after completing high school, but the path to post-secondary success is filled with uncertainty and challenges. Many elements  can impact a student’s ability to succeed after completing high school. We want to ensure that students perform well academically and ensure that they feel supported and prepared to succeed beyond Nova Pioneer.

Exploring post-secondary options

We recently established a Post-School Success (PSS) Team, which has developed a programme to provide all students with personalised guidance on exploring post-secondary options. Our PSS programme is a unique offering available to all senior students at the secondary school level.

The Post School Success team’s goal is to ensure that all students graduate with the character, capabilities & connections to pursue their passions through the best post-secondary fit. One of the ways through which they do this is providing avenues for parents and students to learn about different career options through University visits.

The Post School Success Team held a Fair in the month of August that hosted 10 local and 16 international universities (public and private institutes).  The universities had a wealth of information and inspiration to share with our secondary school form 3 and form 4 boys and girls students alongside their families. 

An introduction to SATs

The form 4 students continued to strengthen their skills as they head into KCSEs while the form 3 students were introduced to SATs and also filled in skill gaps across four key academic subjects. The families were also equipped with the right information and tools to enable them to make good decisions when it comes to selecting universities for their children.  We have since received positive feedback and lots of gratitude from the Nova Pioneer families and community for this successful initiative.
