Careers Guidance at the British Academy Marrakech
Careers is an important aspect of our curriculum and our programme supports students through key milestones in their education. We want all our students to leave us with a clear pathway and an understanding of the world of work so that they can achieve their ambitions, be positive role models and make a positive contribution to our society.
Students will benefit from a carefully tailored program that meets their careers and guidance needs from Year 7 through to Year 11 and in Year 12 and Year 13 once established. To help us do this we will link our careers guidance to the Gatsby Benchmarks which have been explicitly referenced throughout the DfE’s Careers Strategy (December 2017) and the new Statuary Guidance for careers (January 2018).
We evaluate our careers programme using the Gatsby Good Career Guidance Benchmarks. This enables us to compare our school to each of the eight Gatsby Benchmarks and allows us to identify areas for improvement and helps us to plan our careers strategy for the year ahead.
