Measuring the impact of our careers programme

We recently took part in the Pilot CIRS review ( Careers impact review) across the TCAT schools, and an action plan is now in place for TCAT and each secondary school and college. The CIRS review was led by The Careers and Enterprise company, Cheshire and Warrington Pledge and the DFE. Our school lead for careers is now a member of the COI (Community of Improvement)

We complete the (CEC) Careers and Enterprise Company’s Compass benchmarking tool which evaluates careers provision against the 8 Gatsby benchmarks.

At the end of each academic year the findings from Student and parental surveys are used to measure the impact and inform planning for the following academic year

Feedback is gathered form external providers and students following careers and enterprise events that take place throughout the academic year. Examples of this being the annual careers fair, Mock employment interviews, enterprise and activity days and 1 to 1 guidance interview.

Destination data is used to inform future planning and to establish whether careers provision is offering the right advice and guidance and to ascertain whether students are making the right choices when moving into education, employment or training

NEET Prevention and Destination Data

Data is collected  on the intended destinations of Year 11 students. These are all reported to Warrington Borough Council. Students at risk of becoming NEET are identified very early on, using the RONI report, and these students are given priority appointments with our careers adviser and, where necessary additional interventions, such as CareerConnect’s  programs are implemented.
