Helping you meet your statutory duties around careers education advice and guidance
In the eyes of employers, the value of academic qualifications is decreasing, with businesses placing increased attention on skills and competencies (see related research).
The government has made delivery of a holistic career programme statutory in secondary schools and colleges. Careers education is not currently statutory in primary schools but numerous research projects have identified the need to start early to avoid stereotypes becoming entrenched.
The Careers Collaborative is an initiative that aims to ensure statutory duties around careers education information advice and guidance are met or exceeded. It is hosted and coordinated by Hackney Education but is available to schools across London through online delivery.
Schools can find out about the best free opportunities for their pupils, take advantage of offers from our partners, share good practice and keep up to date on statutory requirements.
