The Worst Jobs in History
http://www.channel4.com/history/microsites/W/worstjobs/
The Worst Jobs in History
The history we are taught usually features the lives and times of the great and the good, of the haves and not the have-nots. But the famous aristocrats and monarchs could not have existed without the battalions of minions who performed the tasks that were beneath their masters.
In this website, we take you on a journey through 2,000 years of British history and the worst jobs of each era. Tony Robinson, presenter of the Channel 4 series, has devised a quiz to see how suited you would be to certain jobs in the past. The skills agency learndirect has provided information on current offbeat careers, and finally, we show you how to take your interest further.

Careers : 4 2 Explore
http://www.eduscapes.com/42explore/careers.htm
On each page you'll find definitions, activities, 4 good starting points, and many more links and resources for the thematic topic.
In some cases, we've listed more than four websites on a particular topic. For example, we might provide a few for younger readers and others for more advanced learners.
Each school, classroom, and teacher is unique. As such we didn't try to provide specific activities for particular grade levels. Instead we suggest that teachers explore each link, then design specific, developmentally appropriate activities such as discussion questions, small group activities, or webquests to fit the needs of their curriculum.
The links on this site are safe for children.

Careers-Portal UK
http://www.careers-portal.co.uk/ghe/
First things first—you need to ask yourself why you want to go on to higher education. In the mid-1970s there were fewer than 500,000 undergraduates in all HE; in 1999 over 440,000 students applied to join the first year alone. You need to consider why such a large proportion of school leavers now choose to go on to study at university or college.
