Careers Education Information Advice and Guidance (CEIAG)

Preston Manor School is dedicated to offering all students in Years 7- Year 13 a comprehensive program of events and supporting that deliver essential information and guidance on career opportunities and employment pathways.

We are committed to working towards meeting the Gatsby benchmarks, which are:

  1. A stable careers programme ​
  2. Learning from careers and labour market information  ​
  3. Addressing the needs of each student
  4. Linking curriculum learning to careers
  5. Encounters with employers and employees 
  6. Experiences of workplaces 
  7. Encounters with further and higher education
  8. Personal guidance 

At Preston Manor, all students are entitled to free and impartial career information and guidance, as well as opportunities to gain practical work experience. Our careers program is integrated into Careers-related PSHE lessons, career events, and initiatives within the Personal Development and Well-being curriculum throughout their time at Preston Manor. 

There is an individual careers focus for a group each year that is built into our careers programme.


To improve our services, we utilise the Careers Development Institute (CDI) Framework. This framework guides the implementation of our careers curriculum by clearly defining the skills, knowledge, and attitudes we aim to cultivate, ensuring our students are well-equipped for successful careers.

The CDI Framework outlines the learning outcomes included in our careers program, ensuring that these objectives are both sustained and progressively developed throughout the student's journey at Preston Manor. 

 

Additionally, we have an Independent Careers Advisor who conducts personalised guidance interviews with our students. We welcome employers, training providers, colleges and universities into our school for assemblies, careers events/talks and training activities.
