@MissDFreeman @DavidSGordon1 @guardian 2/3 Depending on the discipline, these future job/career plans may be professional psychology routes where a Masters/Doctorate is needed e.g. Clinical Psychology. Or a career path which does not require postgraduate training e.g. a research assistant/senior family support worker
