Careers Education Programme
Our nominated Careers Leader is Karen Wray. Careers Leaders have responsibility for the delivery of a cross-college careers programme. They should be ensuring, among other things, that:
- The role involves leading the team, planning and managing careers provision and working with local employers, providers, and education establishments.
- The college has a good careers programme that meets the expectations set out in the Gatsby Benchmarks by 2020.
- The destinations of young people from the school are tracked and that this information is used to improve the effectiveness of the careers programme.
We have exciting plans for students enrolling in September 2018 so watch this space to see a full outline of the Careers Education Programme – coming soon!
