Careers Education, Advice and Guidance
We will provide opportunities that empower our students to plan with PRIDE and ambition to achieve a career that contributes to society."
At The John Roan School, our careers provision focuses on what our students need to know at each part of their development with us, as well as equipping them with the essential skills for life beyond compulsory education.
We review and assess our provision against the Gatsby benchmarks. This process supports us in identifying areas of development and work with our partners in united Learning to improve the provision in these areas.
The John Roan school benefits from a designated United Learning Careers Leader that meets regularly with the schools careers lead to offer support and guidance. The information on this page and Careers provision was last reviewed and updated in November 2022 and will be reviewed again in September 2023.
Provider access legislation:
A provider wishing to request access should contact Mr Daniel Garvey, Assistant Principal & Careers Lead.
Telephone: 020 8516 7551 Email: daniel.garvey@thejohnroanschool.org.uk
Opportunities for access
A number of events, integrated into the school careers programme, will offer providers an opportunity to come into school to speak to students and/or their parents.
Please speak to Mr Garvey to identify the most suitable opportunity for you. The school policy on safeguarding sets out the school’s approach to allowing providers into school as visitors to talk to our students.
We work hard to develop ‘career ambition’:
Career and employability education is taught through our pastoral programme. Students are invited to complete a range of careers tasks independently through our Unifrog platform. Having this in place allows us to measure the impact on the careers education taking place and also address the specific needs of our students in each year group.
