IN THIS SECTION
At Lindsworth School we aim to ensure that all our pupils leave school with the skills to achieve a successful career.
Pupils and parents will have personal guidance on the world of work, knowledge of the pathways available to them post 16 and labour market information.
Your school education is preparing you for your future career. So thinking about what you enjoy or what you might like to do next can help you on your path. Use these pages to find your best next step.
Our Aims
This area is intended to help you to make sense of the vast amount of careers information that is available to you.
OpenIn order to assist your child with decisions about their future pathways, you will need access to clear and up to date information about what is available to them. We hope that this section will provide you with that.
OPENThe information on these web pages will help facilitate careers conversations between staff and students at any time, and support you in embedding careers in to your curriculum.
OPENIt is hoped that by sharing what careers provision is on offer at Lindsworth School that employers can identify ways in which they can contribute to our programme. (Please see our Provider Access Policy)
