DfE Careers guidance and access for education and training providers - July 2021
This is a statutory guidance from the Department for Education. This means that recipients must have regard to it when carrying out duties relating to independent careers guidance and provider access to schools.
Good career guidance is the key to social mobility: It is about showing young people, whatever their social and family background, the options open to them, and helping them make the right choices to set them on the path to rewarding future careers.
External Providers
Meols Cop High school has close links with all local and specialist post 16 and post 18 education and training providers.
Colleges, training providers, universities and employers are regularly invited into school to support the careers programme, which in turn contributes to the process of preparing our students for their chosen career path.
