Careers Education, Information, Advice and Guidance (CEIAG)
Following the OFSTED visit in June 2019, we received the following feedback on our emerging careers strategy:
The quality of careers advice and guidance that pupils receive is good. Most pupils move into education, employment or training.
The high-quality careers education ensures that pupils are well prepared for the next stage in their career. The proportion of pupils who move to appropriate destinations is higher than the national average.

Our Careers Education, Information, Advice and Guidance (CEIAG) programme is now being further enhanced to meet the Gatsby Benchmarks, developed following national and international research and seen as the gold standard in careers provision.
