Careers

What we will do:

Develop an approach to careers provision which meets the Gatsby 8 benchmarks so that our learners leave our school well prepared for their next stage of education, employment or training, in order to become confident citizens. We will endeavour to provide high quality inclusive careers provision for all our learners throughout all key stages ensuring the highest possible standards pervade our culture and ethos and our offer is accessible to all. An entitlement to impartial high-quality careers advice and guidance will inform learners about the exciting progression routes into Further Education, Higher Education and employment. All learners will be supported to ensure that they successfully navigate their way through the important transition points.

We will endeavour to maximise the number of work-related learning experiences for all our learners including work exposure and virtual work experiences which will be key elements of our programme.

We will work collaboratively with professional partners including the Staffordshire Careers Hub who will support and challenge our practice. Our Careers Leader will work collaboratively with relevant agencies to ensure the Gatsby 8 benchmarks are met using the Compass plus tool. Our Careers Leader will continually strive to add depth to the benchmarks as the school grows in order to enrich our learners to a higher level.
