Careers

At Inclusion School we understand that everyone has a different starting point and that our learners may need support in working out what they want to do in the future and how to get there. We believe that careers education and a specialist curriculum to help prepare our learners for the future and their working lives is essential to improve their outcomes.

Our Work Skills Advisor at Inclusion School is Amy Robertson. Please contact amy.robertson@inclusionschool.org.uk or call 01256 437 177 if you have any questions or queries about Careers.

Our Careers Advisor is Cathy Smith – cathy.smith@inclusionhampshire.org.uk

We support our learners by:

Developing the skills, character attributes and values needed for the wider world, such as confidence and resilience.

Education on the different opportunities available to them
Links with colleges and supported traineeships, including supporting transitions and visits from college staff

Personalised, bespoke learner-centred planning for every learner
Early identification and support for learners at risk of becoming NEET (Young people Not In Education, Employment or Training)
