School Liaison

We are dedicated to ensuring students across London have the information they need to make informed decisions about their future. We can visit your school to provide support and guidance on the many post-16 options available to students when they leave school.

The Gatsby Benchmarks

1. A stable careers programme
2. Learning from career and labour market information
3. Addressing the needs of each pupil
4. Linking curriculum learning to careers
5. Encounters with employers and employees
6. Experiences of workplaces
7. Encounters with further and higher education
8. Personal guidance

Parents Evenings

Our careers and curriculum team can support your parent events with information, advice and guidance on life at college as well as hands-on activities where appropriate.

Assemblies

Flexible for a range of year groups, assemblies are often a student’s first introduction to college life. These short sessions are a great starting point to excite and engage students in discovering more about various career and educational options.

Career Events

We are delighted to attend any of your career events to meet and advise students on Further Education, (Age 16-18), Higher Education (university level) and Apprenticeships. Our resources will illustrate the exciting courses we offer. The connection we make with your students is important to us and we will ensure the relationship continues after the event with invitations to our open evenings.

Careers Advisor Coffee Mornings

We are hosting a series of coffee mornings for Career Advisors and Career Leads. This will be an excellent opportunity for you to network with other advisors, hear about the fantastic range of courses we offer and get a tour of our centres.

Register for these events here.

We would love to invite you to one of our Taster Days and are happy to offer a Taster Day package bespoke for you and your students. Our subject staff are on hand to deliver interactive taster sessions and you are also welcome to select any of our engagement activities to be delivered on the day.
