Our School
Sir Guy Carleton Secondary School is a vibrant vocational school which focuses on both the trades and academics. We provide students with strong hands-on practical experience to prepare them for:
- College
- Apprenticeships
- Employment
To that end, we provide applied/college and locally developed/workplace pathways.
The Sir Guy Carleton school community is dedicated to our students and provides a positive learning environment that emphasizes vocational training. We provide practical, relevant, and active approaches to education where students are given daily opportunities to learn in a hands-on manner. All of our classes at Sir Guy are capped at a maximum of 17 students.
Our technical, academic, and school wide initiatives, such as Work Experience, ensure a holistic approach to student learning. Sir Guy offers vocational learning in auto service, auto body, cosmetology, childcare, welding, construction, woodworking, communication technology, green industries, hospitality, and health care.All our trade classrooms are real-life job environments. Our academic program is equally effective with instruction designed to meet the learning needs of all our students. For senior students, co-operative education and two week work experience placements are important components of “The School that Works.”
