The careers education and guidance programme at Armthorpe Academy seeks to positively support students to acquire the educational, social, and employability skills necessary for lifelong success in a diverse and changing world of work.

Students at Armthorpe are entitled to a careers education and guidance programme which:

• Is personal to students and always puts students’ interests first;
• Motivates and inspires students to consider all opportunities both within and outside the academy;
• Helps students gain the skills needed to make their career ambitions a reality;
• Provides the support students need to be successful;
• Helps students access any additional support they might need;
• Is delivered by trained and qualified teachers and advisers, with up-to-date knowledge and understanding of career pathways and local labour market information;
• Protects and respects students’ personal information and shares it only with their consent.

Together with external careers providers, we support career development in a number of ways including:

• Information and discussion in lessons and assemblies to help students make decisions about their future;
• Activities and events, such as careers fairs;
• Access to career advisers in a variety of ways including individual meetings, drop-in sessions, learning pathway planning, and results days;
• Careers information and IT-based careers programmes;
• Information and updates on notice boards and websites.
