The Compass Academy has a clear plan in respect of Careers Education, Information, Advice and Guidance (CEIAG). This strategy outlines the Academy’s commitment to the delivery of this plan.
The DfE defines careers guidance as ‘a coherent programme of activities that inform, inspire and motivate young people, preparing them for work and helping them to understand where different education and training choices could take them in the future’.

At The Compass Academy we are committed to ensuring that all pupils have access to experiences that enable them to develop both skills and understanding to support successful transitions.
The Compass Academy strongly believes that excellent careers education, information, advice and guidance (CEIAG) together with meaningful life experiences e.g. vocational experience, employer talks and other related activities can support young people to reach well informed decisions and better understand their options.
The Compass Academy adheres to the Baker Clause Policy Statement stipulating that schools must ensure that a “range of education and training providers” have access to students from Year 7 to Year 13 so that the students can be informed of the technical education and apprenticeships options that are available to them post 16.
Labour Market Information (LMI) uses information and data found in charts, newspaper articles, reports and graphs to tell us what is happening in careers across the local and national area. It also helps to predict future trends in the job market, and is a great resource for those that would like to find out more career information in the local area..
