Careers
Our Aspirations, Careers, and Employability work helps students understand the choices ahead of them and prepare for adult life with confidence.
Students have access to careers education, guidance, encounters with employers, and opportunities that help them explore sixth form, university, apprenticeships, training, and employment.
Careers lead
Our Careers and Aspirations Leader, Mrs K Soulsby, can be reached by raising a helpdesk ticket.
Our careers programme
From Years 7 to 13, students take part in a planned programme that includes:
- careers guidance interviews and follow-up support
- group sessions and careers activities
- encounters with employers through assemblies, workshops, competitions, mentoring, networking, and work experience
- support for key decision points, including sixth form, university, apprenticeships, training, and employment
- opportunities for parents/carers, staff, and employers to find out more and get involved
How we review impact
We review and develop our careers work termly against the Gatsby Benchmarks. We also use feedback from students, parents and carers, staff, and employers to help us improve the programme over time.
