A Shropshire education expert has praised an Ofsted report which calls for more links to careers for students.
Andy Goff, who has decades of worldwide experience in teaching, technology in education and media training in schools, has welcomed the government inspectors’ advice to improve careers provision.
“It isn’t so much about what job they want to do, but more about what they enjoy and what interests them, then we can link this to a career they are more likely to thrive in.” The cards are now active in schools across Shropshire and feature more than 80 businesses. Each card has details of a role, information about local employers and a scannable QR code to take the pupil to videos on the Career Cards website, recorded by that employer, to find out more.
“We found that this could be achieved if leaders think strategically about careers and support employer engagement that is authentic, contextualised and personalised.
