Our delivery is underpinned by the Department for Education Careers Strategy 2017 ‘Making the most of everyone’s skills & talents’ and is compliant with the careers guidance set out by the Government ‘Careers Guidance and Inspiration for young people in schools’, which states all schools must give education and training providers the opportunity to talk to pupils about approved technical qualifications and apprenticeships. In addition, we further support “Careers guidance access for education and training providers guidance (Jan 2023)” and our delivery is measured against 8 Gatsby Benchmarks.
