We are committed to ensure all students have access to high quality impartial careers advice, and to employers who can help students consider their future options into employment, apprenticeships or further and higher education.

The following 8 benchmarks outlined below:
At present we meet each of these benchmarks through the following provisions:
Impartial Careers Advice - We have a dedicated Careers advisor from SkillsHouse (BMDC), and we also have an in-house Careers co-ordinator who organises Work Experience and additional Careers activities.
