Careers guidance in schools, colleges and universities

October 8, 2018

Schools and further education colleges in England are required to provide impartial careers guidance to their students. The Department for Education has published statutory guidance (most recently updated in January 2018) for maintained schools on their duty to provide careers guidance, which also applies to many academies.The quality of careers advice has come in for frequent criticism, and recent governments have made several reforms, including the establishment of the National Careers Service and the Careers and Enterprise Company (CEC), aimed at improving the quality and range of careers advice on offer. Higher education institutions are not required to provide careers advice, but nonetheless this service is offered across institutions.
