Cost-effective
Careers Advice & Guidance

Choose a quality careers service

Partnering with an external Careers Education, Information, Advice and Guidance provider is a big decision and let’s face it, you want the best solution for the best price. Often, we find that schools and Trusts think it’s cheaper to employ their own adviser in-house, but actually, in terms of getting the biggest bang for your buck, this is often not the case. By choosing us as your dedicated careers company, you’ll get fantastic value for money.

From personalised careers guidance for your students, to assemblies and parents’ evenings, our service offers an all-encompassing solution which is delivered by a dedicated Careers Adviser(s). This enables them to get to know you and your school, and for you to get to know them. We literally become an extension of your in-house teams.

5 Point Approach to CEIAG

Our careers guidance approach is based on a 5-phase framework for action. This ensures your young people can access the most appropriate CEIAG for their needs and aspirations.

We want to understand your school needs and your students, so we can tailor our delivery to meet your needs.

What does your existing provision look like? How can we enhance that? What are the needs of your young people? What makes them tick? We take the time to understand you and your school.

If your school needs mostly one-to-one intervention, that’s not a problem. Or maybe group sessions will yield the best results to help inform your students. We’ll work with you to identify the best careers information, advice and guidance interventions for your school and get to work delivering just that. No distractions or additional roles, just a pure and impartial careers advice and guidance service.

Then comes the implementation stage where your dedicated Careers Adviser(s) and our leadership team will establish the implement the most effective careers guidance mechanisms for your students.

Our support for your Year 11s doesn’t stop when they go on study leave! No, no, no. We are there on Results Day to support those who don’t get the grades they’d hoped for and then we track them post-16, helping to support that transition wherever we can. We pride ourselves on providing added-value to schools wherever possible, and destination tracking is one such area where we will always go above and beyond to support our schools.

For us, getting the right careers advice whilst at school makes all the difference long term to a young person, which is why our team is so passionate about promoting what we do wherever possible. We pride ourselves on delivering a positive careers service that provides the impartial information needed by a young person to empower them to make informed decisions.
