Why do we need careers guidance?

Good careers guidance is the key to social mobility: it is about who showing young people, whatever their social and family background is, the options are open to them and helping them make the right choices to set them on the path to rewarding careers.

A key function of secondary schools is to prepare students to transition successfully toward a future career path. This involves providing curriculum opportunities to build students’ general capabilities, support students’ interests and aspirations, and support them to make informed decisions about their subject choices and career pathways.
