The Careers Leader is Crucial

•   Schools and Colleges are making rapid progress towards fully achieving the
    high standards of the benchmarks.

•   Progress is more rapid when the careers leader is a member of the senior
    leadership team or reports to an active senior leadership team link who has
    responsibility for the strategic quality of careers education.

•   The results also demonstrate that it is possible to make significant and rapid
    progress - using the benchmarks as a framework - to carefully target
    improvements in schools/colleges of every type, size, location and structure if this
    leadership is in place.

Careers Strategy

• “Every school and college needs a Careers Leader who has the
  energy and commitment, and backing from the senior
  leadership team, to deliver the careers programme across all
  eight Benchmarks.”

 • Careers Leaders need to:

   • have the appropriate skills and experience
   • be sufficiently senior to lead the implementation of all eight of the
     Benchmarks
   • have buy-in from the Governors and the Senior Leadership team
   • work with subject teachers across the school or college so that
     careers provision is embedded within the curriculum
Careers Strategy
• Gatsby and the CEC will work with school and college leaders to set out
  clearly what Careers Leaders should do, what the job involves, and the
  benefits of the role.

• From September 2018 every school is expected to publish the name and
  contact details of their Careers Leader on their website.

• Government will provide £4 million to fund the development of new
  training programmes and support at least 500 schools and colleges in
  areas of the country needing most support to train their own Careers
  Leaders and build momentum behind this enhanced role.

The role of careers leadership

                  Leadership                Management

                      Co-
                                             Networking
                   ordination

A careers leader is……….
• Not a careers advisor (although these roles should work together and
  can be combined).
• A leadership role and needs to have a strong route to the school’s SLT
  and Headteacher
Personal attributes
A careers leader should be someone who has:
• an interest in careers, employability and the futures of young people;
• an interest in their own professional development and the willingness to contribute to
  the professional development of others;
• an open mind about different educational routes and what constitutes career success;
• a passion for developing curriculum and working with other educators in a cross-
  curricular way;
• experience of managing projects and monitoring the progress and implementation of
  new initiatives;
• interpersonal and team working skills;
• strong communication skills;
• the ability to make changes across the school and to develop the school’s systems;
• the ability to take initiative and be proactive; and
• the capacity to lead, influence and inspire others.
How do schools organise careers leadership?

1. Middle leader   A teacher, or non-teaching member of staff, is appointed to
                   a middle leadership role, with line management support
                   from a senior leader with overall responsibility for careers.
                   The role is combined with other responsibilities, as a
                   teacher, a non-teaching member of staff or a careers
                   adviser.
2. Senior leader   A member of the school’s senior leadership, who may be a
                   teacher or a non-teaching member of staff, is given direct
                   responsibility for the leadership of careers.
                   The role is combined with other responsibilities as a senior
                   leader.
3. Outsourced      The school contracts with an external organisation or
leadership         individual to provide its careers leadership.
4. Distributed     The tasks of careers leadership are shared between a group
leadership         of senior and middle leaders working together as a team.
5. Multi-school    One individual is the careers leader for more than one
leadership         school.
