In England, responsibility for careers guidance for young people has been transferred to individual schools.  Careers leadership involved planning, implementing and quality assuring a careers strategy for the school; managing the delivery of careers education; networking with external partners; coordinating the contributions of careers teachers, subject teachers and SENCO.

This programme starts by providing an overview of current careers policy set by the Government and discusses the changing context of careers for students.  We will then examine our current practice and look in detail at useful tools and resources that can help us have the most impact on our students.

The course will enable participants to:

• Gain an understanding of current CEIAG policy and practice, including the DfE's careers strategy
• Gain an understanding of the tasks involved in careers leadership
• Describe the features of the tasks involved in careers leadership
• Review their schools' existing arrangements for the governance, leadership, management and administration of CEIAG
• Gain information about useful sources of further support and training
