At Bluecoat Trent Academy, we believe that all students should access to the highest standards of educational provision and opportunity, enhancing their future prospects and life aspirations. Careers is very much at the heart of this vision.
Our aim is to embed careers education at the heart of Bluecoat Trent Academy’s core values—Citizenship, Aspiration, Respect, and Excellence. We strive to develop active citizens who understand their place in the world and are inspired to make a positive impact. By providing a high-quality, embedded careers programme across the curriculum, we equip students with the knowledge, ambition, and confidence to shape their futures with purpose and integrity.
As part of this we aim to:
- To ensure that every child develops the knowledge and skills required to success in the most appropriate pathway to them.
- To provide all pupils with a high quality careers advice and guidance enabling them to access the appropriate qualifications for their future pathways.
- To deliver a curriculum that offers appropriate qualifications, which prepare for further study and employment.
- To ensure all pupils understand the range of further and higher education opportunities open to them.
- To implement an effective careers program that provides all pupils with experiences of employers and workplaces which are relevant to their own context.
- At Bluecoat Trent Academy, we use Unifrog to support students in developing their own career plans. UniFrog aims to bring all the available information into one single, impartial, user-friendly platform that helps students to make the best choices, and submit the strongest applications.
