Careers Guidance

Harris Academy Riverside is committed to ensuring that its students have access to the highest standards of information, advice and guidance to help them choose the career that is right for them. We recognise both the importance of young people having goals in which to work, as well as the need of some advice about where to go. The Academy follows the Statutory Guidance from the DfE on Careers Guidance and Access for Education and Training Providers (2018) and is working to implement the Gatsby Benchmarks in full.

The Careers Leader at Harris Academy Riverside is Mrs Garrod who can be contacted on info@harrisriverside.org.uk or 01375 802060. Our careers policy can be found at the bottom of this page.  

The Academy’s careers curriculum aims to help young people develop the skills, confidence and knowledge to enable them to make well informed, considered choices and plans that allow them to access further education or work. As such, we run a comprehensive careers curriculum throughout the Academy which is a vital component of preparing young people for work beyond Harris Academy Riverside. As part of our commitment to informing our students of the full range of learning and training pathways on offer to them, we have a planned programme of careers education for all years (7-13) that includes information that is impartial and confidential (within legal confines) and prepares students for the challenges of adult and working life. The aims of the Academy’s careers programme are to: 

  • contribute to strategies to raise achievement and motivation 

  • emphasise the importance of numeracy and literacy as fundamental skills for 21st century employment 

  • encourage students to become self-aware of their strengths, skills and attributes and how these link to their future lives 

  • support inclusion, challenge stereotyping and promote equality of opportunity 

  • encourage participation in higher and further education 

  • develop enterprise and employability skills, particularly those in-line with students’ areas of strength 

  • support students in securing the right education, training and employment opportunities for them, reducing the numbers of students who are NEAT 

  • contribute to the economic prosperity of individuals and communities so that students are prepared for a life of economic wellbeing 

  • emphasise how students’ behaviour attendance and learning skills are linked to their career prospects and future prosperity
