Careers Education
Be ambitious and expand your horizons - It’s your journey.
Whether going on to a great university, securing an apprenticeship, or entering the workplace, we want every young person who leaves a Creative Education Trust school to have real choices in life. That is why, as well as academic excellence, we seek to ensure that we provide the best possible careers education support and guidance and unique extracurricular opportunities for every student to discover what else they’re good at.
The Baker Clause is a requirement the government places on schools which stipulates that they must allow colleges and training providers access to every student in years 8–13 to discuss non-academic routes that are available to them. Please see our Provider Access Policy below:
