Registration is voluntary and open to those with an approved career development qualification at QCF Level 6 or above
  11. Youth unemployment Riots - 5 issues for education providers: Attainment Attendance Alternative provision Address NEET early (RONIs) Pupils to be work ready …’Hope and dreams…it starts with schools’
  12. ‘After the Riots’ ‘It is not clear what support young people below 16 who are at risk of becoming NEET will receive…It is also not clear how schools will be assessed on the careers advice and support they offer to their pupils…The Panel expects the Ofsted thematic review of careers guidance to be important here’. ‘In our Neighbourhood Survey, only 43% of residents feel schools adequately prepare young people for work’.
  13. Youth Contract Job subsidies for businesses to take on an 18-24 year old as part of the work programme Offer of work experience for every 18-24 year old before they enter the work programme Incentives for employers to take on apprentices 16-17 year old NEET special support Supports LA legal duty to young people up to 19/25 SEN

Statutory guidance for careers guidance (DfE) National career and work related education framework (ACEG) www.aceg.org.uk What are the key drivers on CEIAG now? Youth unemployment RPA Destination measures Professional standards Quality awards
  15. Education Act November 2011 New duty (Sept 2012): Schools to secure independent careers guidance for all in year 9-11 (extended to yr 8 and up to yr 13 and colleges?) Other changes: Removal of duty to provide careers education years 7-11 BUT Secretary of State still expects careers education to be delivered in English schools Removal of duty to provide careers advisers with access to and information on students BUT ministers expect these arrangements to be agreed as part of the school/careers guidance provider contract Removal of duty on schoolsto provide careers information BUT this is an integrated part of the new duty above. Data collection/publication of school and college leavers activities (destinations) NB: new progression/ ‘destination’ measure
  16. The Education Act: Independent careers guidance is defined as: Impartial Information on all options available in 16-18 phase of education or training including apprenticeships Promotes the best interests of pupils Provided by people other than those employed at a school ‘There is a demand for more and better careers guidance’ (DfE 11-11) based on S Goddard slides, summer 2011
  17. Ofsted Key Judgement Guidance criteria Quality of Leadership and Management: Ensuring the curriculum promotes successful progression to the pupils’ next stage of education, training or employment Strategies and procedures, including the provision of appropriate guidance, to help pupils prepare for life in modern, democratic Britain and a global society Working in partnership with other schools, external agencies and the community, including business… Overall effectiveness: The extent to which the education provided by the school meets the needs of the range of pupils at the school…taking into account the progression and destination of pupils when they leave school. How well the students have gained: A well-informed understanding of the options and challenges facing them as they move through the school and on to next stage of their education and training Develop the skills and attitudes to enable them to participate fully and positively in democratic, modern Britain
  18. Destination measures at Key Stage 4 and Key Stage 5 (first published 2012 using ’11 data) KS4 and KS5 Destination Measures are being developed to look at the success of schools in helping their pupils to progress on to positive post-16 destinations. This is to help: Provide clear information to parents and young people about the post-16 routes taken by former learners. Make schools and post-16 providers accountable for ensuring that: all their pupils take qualifications that offer them the best opportunity to progress receivethe support needed to prepare for and complete that transition. Support the increased focus on disadvantaged pupils to ensure that they make a successful transition, helping to raise post-16 participation and reduce NEET. “For both primary and secondary schools, we will put greater emphasis on the progress of every child – setting out more prominently in performance tables how well pupils progress…We will introduce a measure of how young people do when they leave school.” The Importance of Teaching, 2010 based on S Goddard slides, summer 2011
  19. What the measures might look like: Key Stage 4: School A had 90 per cent of pupils who progressed to a positive destination within one year of ending Key Stage 4. Of these pupils: 50 per cent entered further education in School Sixth Form 20 per cent entered further education in Further Education College 10 per cent  entered work-based learning or an Apprenticeship 10 per cent entered employment Key Stage 5: College B had 70 per cent of students who progressed to a positive destination within one year of their 16-18 learning. Of these pupils: 40 per cent entered higher education at University (5 per cent of these students went to Oxford or Cambridge University) 20 per cent continued in further education. 10 per cent entered employment Subject to data testing, the KS4 and 5 destination measure will be published alongside the KS 4 and 5 Performance Tables. based on S Goddard slides, summer 2011

Co-ordinated planning at senior level Student Services staff trained to NVQ3 Advice and Guidance and work with external Level 6 careers adviser Student voice is an important part of review and development, e.g. Student Union, learner surveys
