I’m not teaching, so I can devote 100% of my time to a non-academic curriculum
I was lucky to join a school whose senior team sets a lot of store by work-readiness and could see the benefits of having a careers leader able to complement the skills already in the leadership team, and support members.
I’m not teaching, so I can devote 100% of my time to a non-academic curriculum. I get out, I network. I still have links with business (I’m chair of Barnsley’s ‘More and Better Jobs’ task force) and I have a hard-working team. This year, we’ve put in a non-academic curriculum that shadows and mirrors the academic curriculum, working closely with academic staff.
