WHAT GOOD LOOKS LIKE

Students have different career guidance

needs at different stages. Opportunities for

advice and support should be tailored to each

of these stages, with diversity and equality

embedded in the school’s careers

programme.

A school’s careers programme should actively

seek to challenge stereotypical thinking and

raise aspirations.

Schools should keep systematic records of the

individual advice given to each student and

subsequent agreed decisions. All students

should have access to these records to

support their career development.

Schools should collect and maintain accurate

data for each student on their education,

training or employment destinations for at

least three years after they leave school.

The school has been selected to provide

information on what they are doing to

achieve or work towards the achievement of

the benchmark’
