Careers

Career learning is increasingly embedded into the taught curriculum. Our alternative provision has strong links with local businesses and colleges and provides personal independent age appropriate guidance and support for students. The careers education and guidance programme at our alternative provision seeks to positively support our students to acquire the educational, social and employability skills necessary for lifelong success in a diverse and changing world of work.

Progress Careers works in partnership with our alternative provision to provide high quality, impartial advice and guidance to enable students to make the right decisions about their future. Independent Progress Careers advisers are based in our alternative provision one or two days per week.

Our Trust has worked with external partnerships to develop unique subject career resources that can be embedded into our curriculum subject delivery. We plan to provide up to 9 of these career learning experiences across each year group through their subject study. This collaborative work has involved our subject curriculum teams, businesses and higher education providers to create relevant subject/ career specific film resources that illustrate how the aspect of our students’ subject learning translates to the workplace and higher education. This unique work will enable our students to gain meaningful encounters with higher education and employers.
