Lisa – parent Year 9 student

I think it is very powerful to help a child understand what they are innately good at and what they will ‘naturally’ enjoy. In a world with so many options, providing this sort of guidance to them, even as deep and complex as it is, can prove to be very helpful for them when choosing subjects and more broadly, looking at career direction. At their age they don’t really know what they ‘like’ but with this information they can maybe look for what they like in a targeted way. As a parent, aside from be able to help with all of the above, this was affirming as much of it aligned with what we observe out of school and maps quite closely to personality traits, behaviours and some of the observed learning outcomes. Very interesting and helpful from a school AND home perspective, thanks. Very grateful for Hillcrest to provide this wonderful service – My wife and I are also thinking of completing this to help us in our own careers.
