Careers Framework

For further details on how careers information is integrated into the school, see the careers framework below.  The framework aims to prepare young people for the opportunities, responsibilities and experiences of later life.   A stable careers programme enables young people to make well-informed decisions about education, training, apprenticeship and employment opportunities.  It may be supplemented by additional activities throughout the year.
