Careers Programme
Good career guidance is crucial if young people are to raise their aspirations and take advantage of the opportunities presented to them. At The English School we aim to provide a holistic approach to Careers Education, striving to develop our programme so that is in line with the Gatsby Benchmarks. Our Careers & University Entry programme offers our students an environment in which they are able to make informed choices, both in terms of delivery and also in terms of infrastructure. We have a dedicated Careers area adjacent to the Senior Students Study Centre, which makes our staff easily accessible to its students. We offer independent and accurate information, advice and guidance through the delivery of a structured programme of Careers Education which involves the entire school community. We aim to equip our students with transferrable skills that will assist them throughout their lives so that, ultimately, they will be able to realise their ambitions with confidence. Details of our Careers Strategy as well as the Department’s quarterly newsletter ‘Careers e-news’ can be viewed on our Department’s pages, whilst below you will find an outline of our Careers Programme:
