The De Montfort School Careers Information Advice and Guidance
The Government’s Careers Strategy sets out a long term plan to build a world
class careers system that will help young people and adults choose the career
that is right for them. To achieve this aim, the Careers Strategy sets out that
every school providing secondary education should use the Gatsby Charitable
Foundation Benchmarks to develop and improve their careers provision. The Gatsby
Benchmarks are not a statutory framework but by adopting them, schools can be
confident that they are fulfilling their legal duties.’ DfE January 2018
(Careers guidance and access for education and training providers).
The De Montfort School has adopted the Gatsby Benchmark Tool Kit and is also working with The Careers and Enterprise Company who has provided an adviser to our school, Mike Gee. Mike will work closely with the careers team to enhance our provision for pupils with careers information, advice and guidance.
