Careers Curriculum

We are committed to help young people with SEND to aspire to a wide range of destinations and to realise these aspirations.


Providing students with taster opportunities, work experience, mentoring, enterprise education, access to role models and inspiring speakers can all help to achieve this.


We will ensure that throughout our students’ school life we will help each pupil develop the foundations for success in adulthood:


A functional communication system

Social confidence and relationship skills

An understanding of work and the importance of contributing and earning for self-worth and wellbeing.


Our Careers Curriculum has been developed in line with the Gatsby benchmarks identified in 2014 by the Gatsby Charitable Foundation in the report ‘Good Career Guidance’.


The 8 Gatsby benchmarks help schools deliver high quality careers and enterprise provision:

A stable careers programme

Learning from career and labour market information

Addressing the needs of each pupil

Linking curriculum learning to careers

Encounters with employers and employees

Experiences of workplaces

Encounters with further and higher education

Personal guidance

SEND Gatsby Benchmark Toolkit


Our curriculum delivery will be measured and assessed through monitoring our programme against the above benchmarks and individually for students through functional, life skills based assessment and target setting.
