Pathways
In this section you will find information regarding apprenticeships, colleges and universities.
At West Calder High School, we are committed to preparing our young people for the world of work and to helping them to be ambitious about their career goals. In order to support them in this process, we have created the Your Future Portal, available through the link here. We hope that by providing this resource, pupils will feel confident to take responsibility to explore their options and to find the best possible destination for them.
