At William Byrd, our goal is to expose children to a wide variety of careers and job based skills to ensure that they have the adequate information and experiences to prepare them for the choices they will make in the next stages of their education in life. This project was started through our partnership with PFAEY (preparing for adulthood from the early years). Our approach to careers education is multi-tiered:

• Explicit teaching about careers and educational pathways through our PSHRE lessons
• Explicit links to careers on all of our educational trips and visits
• Explicit links to careers in our foundation subjects
• Enterprise opportunities, internally and through the Heathrow B.E.E. programme
• A week long careers week in Summer 2 with career visitors, application skills and money management workshops

Please see below, our progression of careers. We have created this to ensure that all pupils are exposed to a wide range of careers across many different sectors.
