Key Stage 3
​
BBEC has introduced a new careers programme and leadership structure for this academic year. This is led by Joe Ryan (Assistant Headteacher – Student Experience), who brings a wealth of experience, expertise and skills to the role.
​
YEAR 7​​
All Year 7 students will receive the following core offer during this academic year:
​
• Period 1 (tutorial) programme, including regular links to careers and future aspirations;
• Two dedicated Careers Weeks, with a focus delivered through Period 3 and assemblies. These take place during the autumn and summer terms.
​
In addition, students will benefit from bespoke events featuring expert speakers from outside school, who will provide further careers information, advice and guidance. During Science Week, there will also be a focus on careers linked to STEM subjects, helping to inspire students and develop a sense of awe and wonder about future opportunities.
Year 7 students will also develop connections with careers through the University Passport Programme¹ and the interlinked BBEC Academies Programme.
​
All of our careers provision is mapped against the CDI Framework² to ensure the highest quality of planning, outcomes and impact for our students.
If you require any further information, or if you represent a company or organisation that would like to engage with our careers programme, please do not hesitate to contact me.
