Personal Guidance

The Academy at Shotton Hall has worked with CareerWave for many years. They provide high quality, impartial career guidance and students feedback that the input is invaluable in helping them make informed decisions.
CareerWave has also worked closely with the Academy on the Gatsby Pilot and has helped the Academy progress towards fully meeting all 8 benchmarks.

We have developed a great partnership with CareerWave providing our students with excellent impartial guidance for their future. Students within the school really appreciate the time and aspirational information that has enabled them to make their own choices. We look forward to continuing this work together to enable our students to feel more confident about their career plans.

We have been using CareerWave for three years now and we are completely happy with the service provided by Richard and the team, so much so, that we have entered into a new long-term three year deal for independent and impartial Personal Guidance.

Through pupil voice, we know that the service is impacting students positively with 91.4% of those students surveyed over the three years saying that the sessions helped them with the process of taking the next steps after Belmont and beyond.

As a Careers Leader facing the challenges of implementing the Gatsby Benchmarks, I do not hesitate to recommend the professional Career Guidance service offered by CareerWave. Their dedicated one-to-one Personal Guidance has been commended by our students and the professional support offered to me has been a key contribution to our "very effective careers guidance" programme (Ofsted, 2018). We are delighted to be committed to a long-term partnership with CareerWave to ensure the best possible futures for our students.
