Careers Information and Guidance
Paul Kearley, Careers Lead
Notton House Academy's goal is to provide every student with the knowledge of what opportunities are around them locally and nationally. The school buys into a professional careers service, "New Mango", which will be working with our careers specialist staff to deliver a robust programme of Careers from Primary through to GCSE. Steve Newman is our specialist partner, to help staff and pupils make the right and most informed decision regarding their next steps. Our aim is for 0 NEETs every year.
Our careers lead teacher is Paul Kearley, who is also our Deputy Headteacher, Curriculum, and Pupil Progress and Outcomes. Paul has completed the CDI Careers Leader training course.
The Compass Tool is used three times a year to measure compliance against the Gatsby Benchmarks and set an action plan to develop the programme further.
We also work with New Mango, so that an independent career advisor can meet with pupils to support decision-making from year 10 onwards.
