Careers Education at Park Hall Academy
High quality careers education is a crucial part of improving social mobility. Young people make choices based on what they know and what they think is available to them. The aim of Park Hall Futures is for all pupils at Park Hall Academy to be inspired and fully aware of the career pathways and opportunities available to them, making informed choices about which qualifications and career pathways will enable them to reach their goals.
Park Hall works in partnership with many other Solihull schools as part of the Life Ready Programme (Solihull) which provides a framework designed to develop independent, life ready young adults. The programme is based on evidence from the Gatsby Foundation / Benchmarks and the DfE Careers Strategy The shared vision of the Life Ready Solihull Programme is that ‘students leaving Park Hall will have the skills, knowledge and dynamism to reach their full career potential, to meet the needs of employers and to contribute to the economic growth of the borough and the Local Enterprise Partnership.
The impact of our careers provision is measured through our Compass reviews which considers the extent to which the school meets the Gatsby Benchmarks.
