What is Unifrog?

Unifrog is an online platform designed to support young people to make informed decisions about their futures. They partner with schools to provide a range of online tools and lessons to help students explore their interests, find their best next step, and apply successfully. The online platform is suitable for all students from Year 7 all the way up to Year 11 and beyond.

 

Unifrog for Key Stage 3

In KS3, exploring careers should be about discovering all the opportunities out there.

Unifrog has grouped its career profiles into 56 sector profiles to help students explore a career area without needing to focus on a single job.  Each profile includes a sector overview, how to get started, the skills you’ll need, useful links, and up-to-date labour market information.

Students can use the activities tool as shown below to start building a portfolio of academic and extracurricular activities. They can use this tool to record and remember all the great work they’ve been doing, whether in class, on a sports team, in private music lessons, volunteering, or something else. They can also use their record to reflect on their journey so far to see what they’re good at, what they like doing, and what they want to do next.

 

Unifrog for Key Stage 4

Unifrog makes tool suggestions based on students’ ages and interests, as well as their experience with other schools. All students can explore all the tools available to our school.

Students can use the careers library to explore over 600 careers and read up on key details like typical duties, necessary skills and qualifications and local and national labour market information.

They can also watch videos with industry experts who share their own journeys and some of their favourite and least favourite parts of their jobs.

 

Work Experience Placement Tool

Unifrog’s Placement tool allows students in year 10 to organise work experience and placements directly from the platform, all under the supervision of a parent/carer and teacher.
