THE DHSB CAREERS PROGRAMME

The DHSB careers programme is integrated into the PSHE provision on Friday P1 slots, and supplemented by a range of interactions with employers and the workplace through tutorial time, year group assemblies, Challenge Week and Enrichment Week opportunities and Unifrog.

The impact of the Careers programme is measured through internal reviews 3 times per year, meetings with our Link Trustee and presentations to the Board of Trustees for DHSB - all of which feed into our termly Compass+ reviews with the Careers & Enterprise Company who measure the impact of our programme in meeting our Gatsby Benchmark compliance.

Please click the Careers tab above to learn more about the offer here at DHSB.
