All Pupils at Adelaide School access a highly effective careers programme that supports them to make informed, realistic and intelligent decisions about the next stage of their education, training or employment with training. |
||||
Pupils follow a Careers Journey, this tells them the range of support and careers based activities and experiences they will have the opportunity to access throughout their time here. Careers education and guidance programmes make a major contribution to preparing young people for the opportunities, responsibilities and experiences of life. A planned progressive programme of activities supports them in choosing KS4 & KS5 pathways that suit their interests and abilities and help them to follow a career path and sustain employability throughout their working lives. We use Grofar to track all Careers activities and monitor experiences of the workplace. Pupils have their own login for Grofar where they can view their personalised dashboards. Pupils can use this area to research careers, review their activities and targets and build their CV's. |

Adelaide School has adopted the Careers Guidance and statutory requirements issued by the Department of Education in December 2017. All our subject curriculums have careers embedded within them. We use the Primary and Secondary Career Development Institute Framework and Skills Builder skills in our lessons.
