Career Development Programme
Ofsted Report November 2017; Personal Development, Behaviour and Welfare
“Pupils, from Year 7 onwards, are taught with enthusiasm about careers. Year 7 pupils are keen to participate in the personal development days that introduce employability skills, and in Year 8 pupils are encouraged to start thinking about what drives and inspires them. Pupils in Year 11 attend valuable sessions about different areas of work as well as having conversations with staff and a specialist adviser before choosing their post-16 options.”
The Henry Box School - Career Development Team Talentino®
As a school we must now be working in line with the Department for Education Career Strategy and therefore working towards meeting the Gatsby Benchmarks (see the Downloads below).

Notes |
How we are currently meeting this benchmark |
A Stable Careers Programme
|
Every school and college should have an embedded programme of career education and guidance that is known and understood by pupils, parents, teachers, governors and employers. |
|
Learning From Career & Labour Market Information
|
Every pupil, and their parents, should have access to good quality information about future study options and labour market opportunities. They will need the support of an informed adviser to make best use of available information. |
|
Addressing The Needs Of Each 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. |
|
Linking Curriculum Learning to Careers |
All teachers should link curriculum learning with careers. STEM subject teachers should highlight the relevance of stem subjects for a wide range of future career paths. |
|
Encounters With Employers And Employees
|
Every pupil should have multiple opportunities to learn from employers about work, employment and the skills that are valued in the workplace. This can be through a range of enrichment activities including visiting speakers, mentoring and enterprise schemes. |
|
Experiences Of Workplaces |
Every pupil should have first-hand experiences of the workplace through work visits, work shadowing and/or work experience to help their exploration of career opportunities, and expand their networks. |
|
Encounters With Further Higher Education
|
All pupils should understand the full range of learning opportunities that are available to them. This includes both academic and vocational routes and learning in schools, universities and in the workplace. |
|
Personal Guidance |
Every pupil should have opportunities for guidance interviews with a career adviser. These should be available whenever significant study or career choices are being made. They should be expected for all pupils but timed to meet their individual needs |
