We provide our students with multiple learning opportunities to engage with the world of work through encounters with employers, professionals and opportunity providers. This allows students to discover their strengths and passions, whilst developing career management skills so they can confidently move towards their long and short-term career goals.
Every student at Childwall Sports and Science Academy is entitled to a thorough, personalised and ambitious programme of career events and personalised, independent careers guidance throughout their time at the school. They are guided towards whichever route they choose, whether this occurs at the end of KS4 or the end of KS5.
