Why embed careers into your curriculum?

NEW INSPIRATION: You could be providing the single inspirational moment that changes the direction of a student’s life.

MOTIVATION: Students see that subjects are relevant to the real world and therefore why it’s important to study them.

Here are a few simple things you can do:

• Create a careers corner in your classroom

• Include pathways student could take at age 16 and age 18

• Highlight essential skills that link to activities

• Could you frame your lesson with a job role or job sector?

• Display websites and events

• Be personal and share your own story

• Engage with parents, businesses and organisations

• Involve alumni members
