Dormers Wells High School offers a comprehensive career’s programme through lessons, tutor time, and workshops and trips. This begins in year 7 and continues all through our students’ time at school with multiple opportunities to speak to employers, colleges, universities and apprenticeship providers each year. Students selecting their options and applying to our Sixth Form are supported with one-one interviews focussing on their career aspirations. Two careers fairs take place each year and allow students to speak to employers and educational institutions to learn about the world of work, and the best routes to success.
The impact of the career’s programme provided by the school is evaluated as per the CEAIG policy by senior staff and governors. A Compass evaluation is performed termly, and is used to highlight areas of success. As we are always seeking to better outcomes for our students, any new opportunities brought up during the evaluation are looked at. A range of feedback is gathered from students, staff and employers to fine tune our programme.
