Our commitment to preparing young people for life is reflected in our curriculum across every phase of the school. We begin our structured Careers and Enterprise Programme in Year 7, in line with national requirements.
Vision
To ensure learners, along with their parents and carers, are informed and prepared to achieve aspirational next steps into adulthood and/or the world of work.
Our Core Aims:
- All learners, parents and carers, and teachers have access to up-to-date careers information, advice, and guidance.
- All learners have access to an engaging, enriched, meaningful, and developmental careers programme.
- All learners transition to a variety of sustained positive destinations.
- As they move through the programme, learners are prepared for transitions to their next stage of education, training, or employment.
Quality Careers Education, Information, Advice, and Guidance (CEIAG) is a vital part of all learners’ entitlement and learning. We provide appropriate activities and experiences to enable our learners and their families to make well-informed decisions and successful transitions in life and work. We support learners in preparing for their preferred transitional pathway, whether that is continuing with further education, entering employment or training, or living independently. We take a person-centred approach to pupil outcomes through our EHCP Annual Review process, where we work with all stakeholders to shape clear and ambitious targets to prepare pupils for their next steps.
Our Careers Lead is Jen Ferrett. She can be reached at jferrett@cannbridge.co.uk or by phone at 01752 207909.
Our Careers Advisor is Kate Cable, who provides impartial Information, Advice, and Guidance and works for the CSW Group.
