Careers Programme

As part of Wembley Manor’s commitment to support our pupils to ‘RISE’ - by being Resilient, Independent, Skilled and Expressive we follow a ‘Careers at Every Level’ approach and make exploring jobs, workplaces and developing skills for the world of work a focus in every year group across the school.

In Key stage 3 pupils begin to increasingly focus on Preparing for Adulthood. Careers Education and exploring the world of work continues to be delivered as part of class learning themes each half term. Additionally, at Key stage 3 pupils will be offered Careers Education Guidance, and regular encounters with employers and education providers in line with statutory guidelines and in a manner that is accessible to our pupils.

At Key stage 4 pupils continue to focus on a range of Preparation for Adulthood and Careers activities including Careers Education Guidance, Work Experience, both on and off site if appropriate, and regular encounters with employers and education providers.​
