Vision (Intent)
‘Empowering students to plan and manage their own future’
At Holgate Meadows we are committed to providing students with personalised and independent advice and guidance, to prepare for life beyond the school gates. We will provide ‘real life’ experiences for students to enable them to make informed choices.
We want to empower students to plan and manage their own future, no matter what stage of career development they are currently at.
We will support students by responding to their needs and interests, opening doors to experiences and opportunities that help them to progress and to help them with opportunities/pathways to achieve success!
We will plan a programme of activities to prepare students for their own future pathways, plan for future careers and sustain employability throughout their lives.
We will ensure a careers curriculum where learning takes place through engaging activities that are appropriate to student’s stages of career learning, planning and development.
Ours students will receive a CEIAG provision which meets professional standards of practice and which is person-centred, aspirational, impartial and confidential. The programme will raise aspirations, challenge stereotyping and promote equality and diversity.
