Careers Curriculum

Our Careers and Skills Curriculum provides a structured, accessible route which helps every student build confidence, try new experiences, and successfully transition to life after school.

Our Learning Journey

• KS3 – Discover
  • Students start by exploring their personal strengths, interests, and talents.
  • We introduce a wide variety of roles and work concepts through fun, accessible activities.
• KS4 – Explore & Experience
  • Students learn practical, hands-on skills.
  • We engage in enterprise projects, workplace visits, and initial work-related experiences.
• KS5 – Prepare & Progress
  • Students focus on independent living skills, employment transitions, and colleges.
  • We work together with community partners to secure meaningful future pathways.

How to Get Involved:

• Students: Engage in learning at school to find out what you love doing and build skills for your future.
• Parents & Carers: We keep you involved at every stage to map out your child's goals together.
• Employers: Partner with us for work experience, site visits, or local projects to champion inclusion.
