Students told to be realistic in making career choices

8/24/2015

Comments

 
STUDENTS from the four secondary schools in Jiwaka met with representatives from the universities and other tertiary institutions around the country during the Career Expo last week.
Governor Dr William Tongamp told the students to be realistic when making career choices on their school leaver forms.
“This is part of a final transition from your young life into adulthood. The choices you make today will decide what you will be tomorrow. To be realistic means your marks must correspond to your learning abilities,” Tongamp said.
He said students faced life’s real challenges when they leave Grade 12.
Senior standards officer Brian Dorum said there were fewer spaces in tertiary institutions, creating a “bottleneck” situation where many bright students missed out during selections.
While in Western Highlands, Highlands’s regional director for guidance Allan Jim told the Grade 12 students who attended the expo at the Holy Trinity Teachers’ College that there were more than 24,000 Grades 12s throughout the country but only 7000 would be selected for the government-run institutions.
Jim said the remainders were then taken on board by the privately-run institutions. That was why the career expo needed to explain to students what grade point average they should meet to further their studies at the universities and colleges.
He said the career expo was to tell the students what they would need  to secure a placing.
