Evaluating our careers programme
The impact of our CEIAG provision is measured and assessed using the eight Gatsby Benchmarks and our Destinations data. Evaluation of the careers programme is an ongoing and cyclical process where all aspects are reviewed termly to inform future planning. CEIAG is reviewed against the Gatsby benchmarks on a termly basis and is reviewed with the School’s Leadership Team and careers link governor annually. The evaluation also includes the views of employers, training providers, students and parents. The next review will take place in September 2023.
