To develop students’ knowledge, understanding and skills relevant to life in a rapidly changing world
Blackpool Aspire academy is very keen to establish links with colleges, sixth forms, higher and further education providers, employers and employees in the local community and beyond.
The Careers’ curriculum is continually being developed and evaluated. Blackpool Aspire academy believes that every learner should have opportunities to learn from employers about the world of work, employability skills and the personal qualities that are valued in the workplace. This will increase the self-confidence of students and raise aspirations. Students can then make informed choices about future careers and develop employ-ability skills.
澳门六合彩开奖记录 is working towards achieving the Quality in Careers Standard. The academy is also working towards full implementation of the Gatsby Benchmarks to ensure that careers provision is of the highest quality for students.
The Gatsby Benchmarks are:
- A stable careers’ programme
- Learning from career and labour market information
- Addressing the needs of each pupil
- Linking curriculum learning to careers
- Encounters with employers and employees
- Experiences of workplaces
- Encounters with further and higher education
- Personal guidance
As an employer you can support our students significantly and help us to achieve our goals. We are committed to allowing our young people to positively transition out of secondary school life, equipped for the world of work, with the skills required to solve industry challenges and the knowledge to ensure a successful future.
Business Owners and Employers can support the school by:
- Attending a Careers Fair or networking event
- Offering work experience
- Offering a visit to your place of work
- Careers Talks
- Pupil Mentoring
Blackpool Aspire academy is currently looking to develop links with employers to help meet Benchmarks 5 and 6. Further information is contained in the Provider Access Policy on the web-site.
