The importance of delivering good careers education and guidance in
schools and colleges has never been greater.
Statutory guidance sets out the requirement for
every school to have a named careers leader. They are expected to lead,
manage and co-ordinate the school's
careers programme, across all eight Gatsby Benchmarks. This
is a big job and it is often one that people will begin with little training or
experience.
Drawing on over 30 years' experience of careers work, David
Andrews and Tristram Hooley provide you with everything that you need to know
to lead effectively and develop your role and expertise. Updated throughout to
reflect changes in policy and education, the second edition continues to offer
practical advice and ideas for planning, developing and maintaining an
excellent careers programme. Highlighting the latest resources and support
available, it also gives you plentiful tools - both in the book and in
additional online materials - to help you become an outstanding careers leader.
Whether you are already a careers leader, about to become one, or
are involved in the training of future careers leaders, this is the book for
you!
