Careers Education, Information, Advice and Guidance (CEIAG)

At Chase High we are committed to providing good quality careers education, information, advice and guidance (CEIAG) and work-related learning (WRL) for all students in years 12 to 14. We measure ourselves using the Gatsby Benchmarks which is a Careers Bench Mark Tool implemented by the DFE. The eight benchmarks provide us with a framework that helps us to identify our strengths and areas that we can develop.

The careers programme combines career planning lessons, skills workshops, one-to-one independent careers guidance, mentoring, online career information resources and a wide range of events and activities, including: sector career talks, employer visits, careers fair, inspirational speakers, enterprise activities, career advice evenings and work experience.
