Careers
The school's Careers programme is embedded throughout the school and is integral to our curriculum intent at all three key stages in preparing young people for the next phase of education, or for a successful return to mainstream education. The school has high rates of reintegration and regularly outperforms the national average of similar schools, for the number of pupils who leave in Year 11 for a positive destination. The majority of pupils leaving in Year 11 will move on to a local college.
We work with the Derbyshire Education Business Partnership and the D2N2 Local Enterprise Partnership to provide further access to independent careers information, education, advice and guidance, and access to local employers.
