Addressing the Needs of Every Pupil
Pupils have different career guidance needs at different stages. Opportunities for advice and support need to be tailored to the needs of each pupil. A school’s careers programme should embed equality and diversity considerations throughout.
Advice and support should be tailored to the needs of each pupil. Keeping good records of pupils and their destinations after school.
Schools should provide a careers programme that:
- Raises aspirations of all students
- Challenges stereotypical thinking (In terms of, for example, gender)
- Keeps systematic records on each pupil’s experiences of career and enterprise activity
- Enables pupils to access accurate records about their careers and enterprise experiences
- Collects and maintains accurate data for each pupil on their destinations for three years after they leave school
- Shares above mentioned data with the local authority
- Works proactively with the local authority and careers advisers to provide careers guidance to vulnerable pupils and special educational needs and disability (SEND) students
