Our Vision
Building upon the foundation of our school values of Aspiration, Resilience and Community, we aim to provide the students of St Mark’s with the knowledge and skills they will need to be future employees and potential employers in the context of business, enterprise, and creativity.
By the time they leave St Mark’s, each student will aspire to be the best they can be and do the best they can do, whatever that entails. They will be resilient enough to know that life can be challenging, but they will step up to the challenge. They may not always succeed, but where they fail, they will try again. They will appreciate and understand that whatever they do, they do it as part of a community.
This policy statement (School Improvement Plan for Careers) sets out the school’s arrangements for careers provision, as well as the arrangements for managing the access of providers to pupils at the school for the purposes of giving them information about the provider’s education or training offer. This complies with the school’s legal obligations under Section 42B of the Education Act 1997.
Learner Outcomes
By the end of their careers learning journey at St Mark’s CofE School:
- All students will have experienced meaningful encounters with workplaces and employers, both during KS3 and KS4.
- All students will understand a variety of local and national opportunities in the labor market and how these link with the learning taking place in curriculum based subjects in school.
- All students achieve a secure post 16 opportunity for employment, education or training.
