The aim of careers, information and guidance at Fir Vale Academy is to enable our students to achieve their potential and make successful transitions to adult life. We model our programme on the eight Gatsby benchmarks of Good Career Guidance.

1. A stable careers programme

2. Learning from career and labour market information

3. Addressing the needs of each pupil

4. Linking curriculum learning to careers

5. Encounters with employers and employees

6. Experiences of workplaces

7. Encounters with further and higher education

8. Personal guidance

The examples of activities within this section of the website are not exhaustive but give an indication of what is on offer at Fir Vale School.
