During your first year with us, CEIAG (Careers Education, Information and Guidance) will be heavily built into PSHCE. The focus is on self development, money skills and banking, British Values and an introduction to careers. You will also be setting key targets and reviewing how you have developed your employability skills each half term through your subjects and wider school activities.

Labour Market information

Labour Market Information is information relating to the world of work, employment trends, job roles and job availability. It is used to enable people to make decisions about education, jobs or training.  LMI will impact which career, training, skills or education you wish to take.

Researching labour market information will help you answer the following questions.

• How many jobs are there? How many in my area? What are the past trends? What are likely future trends?

• How much do people get paid for this job? How much at the start of their career? How much in my area?

• What level of qualification do people have in this job and what am I likely to need?

• How many vacancies are there for this job? What proportion of people in this occupation are currently out of work?

To find out what’s happening in our local area, please see the LMI poster below.
