2.2 CAREERS AND EMPLOYABILITY

In St. Mary’s, Careers Education, Information, Advice and Guidance (CEIAG) is an important element of our provision. We provide students with access to high quality careers education, information, advice and guidance to enable them to make informed, considered and realistic decisions about their education, training and employment options.


We aim to:

  • provide students with a broad and balanced curriculum that will enable them to pursue progression pathways which match their interests and aspirations;

  • equip students with the employability skills required for future working lives through a range of opportunities and experiences;

  • instil a commitment to lifelong learning in each student which is essential in the twenty first century world of work; and

  • empower students to plan and manage their future careers.

Education for Employability


The Education for Employability programme was delivered through Learning for Life and Work to all students in Key Stage 3 and Key Stage 4 and allowed them to focus on the following areas:

  • Work in the Local and Global Economy;

  • Career Management;

  • Enterprise and Entrepreneurship; and

  • Skills and Qualities for Work.

Through this programme, we aim to help our students develop the range of skills necessary for the world of work. In addition to the taught programme, students had the opportunity to engage in a range of practical activities and workshops.
