SummaryAbout this guidanceThis is statutory guidance from the Department for Education. This means that recipientsmust have regard to it when carrying out duties relating to independent careers guidanceand provider access to schools. We use the term ‘must’ when the person in question islegally required to do something and ‘should’ when advice is being offered.Expiry or review dateThis statutory guidance replaces the version issued in January 2018. This statutoryguidance will be reviewed annually and updated if necessary.What legislation does this guidance refer to? Sections 42A 1, 42B and 45A of the Education Act 1997 Section 72 of the Education and Skills Act 2008 Schedule 4 (15) of the School Information (England) Regulations 2008Who is this guidance for?This is statutory guidance for: governing bodies, proprietors, school leaders, careers leaders and school staff inmaintained schools 2, academies and free schools (including alternative provisionacademies and free schools) 3 that provide secondary education; local authorities that maintain pupil referral units that provide secondary education.Subsection (6) of section 42A was amended by the Careers Guidance in Schools Regulations 2013For the purposes of this statutory guidance, references to ‘maintained school’ or ‘school’ means acommunity, foundation or voluntary school, community or foundation special school (other than oneestablished in a hospital) that provides secondary education. It also includes pupil referral units.References to a ‘governing body’ or ‘proprietor’ include a local authority that maintains a pupil referral unit.3All academies and free schools are subject to the new duty to provide pupils with access to a range ofeducation and training providers. Many academies and free schools are subject to the duty to provideindependent careers guidance through their funding agreements, including those which opened fromSeptember 2012 and those which have moved to the updated funding agreement. Academies without therequirement are encouraged to follow the guidance in any case as a statement of good practice.124
Main points The Government’s careers strategy 4, published on 4 December 2017, sets out along term plan to build a world class careers system that will help young peopleand adults choose the career that is right for them. This statutory guidance hasbeen updated to expand on the aim set out in the strategy to make sure that allyoung people in secondary school get a programme of advice and guidance that isstable, structured and delivered by individuals with the right skills and experience. To achieve this aim, the careers strategy sets out that every school and academyproviding secondary education should use the Gatsby Charitable Foundation’sBenchmarks 5 to develop and improve their careers provision. This statutoryguidance has been restructured around the Benchmarks with information on whatschools need to do to meet each one. The Gatsby Benchmarks are not a statutoryframework but by adopting them, schools can be confident that they are fulfillingtheir legal duties: the existing duties to secure independent careers guidance andprovide opportunities to a range of providers to inform pupils about technicaleducation qualifications or apprenticeships and the new duty to publish informationabout the careers programme on the school website. The Benchmarks go further by defining all of the elements of an excellent careersprogramme, based on the best national and international research. Governmentrecognises that the work needed to meet all eight Benchmarks will vary forindividual schools. Government’s expectation is that schools begin to worktowards the Benchmarks now and meet them by the end of 2020. Compass is anonline self-evaluation tool 6 for schools to use to assess how their careers supportcompares against the Gatsby Benchmarks and the national average. Schoolsshould baseline themselves using this tool, consider the opportunities to improvetheir careers programme based on their confidential results, and track theirprogress against the Benchmarks over time. The careers strategy explains that both co-ordinated external support and anappropriately skilled and experienced leader in school are important to helpschools meet the Benchmarks. This statutory guidance explains what support willbe made available to schools between now and 2020. The Careers & Enterprise Company will provide external support to schools. TheCompany supports and coordinates collaboration between employers, schools,colleges, Local Enterprise Partnerships and careers and enterprise s-skills-andtalents5Gatsby Charitable Foundation (2014) Good Career Guidance.

to create high impact careers and enterprise support to young people (aged 1118). The Company’s initial focus has been on employer engagement, based onevidence about the importance of giving young people more opportunities toconnect with employers of all sizes, and from all sectors. These encounters willinspire pupils and allow them to learn about what work is like, or what it takes tobe successful in the workforce. The careers strategy confirmed that The Careers &Enterprise Company will take on a more ambitious role building on their progressto date, offering all schools an Enterprise Adviser 7 by 2020. The Careers &Enterprise Company will also offer further support across all of the GatsbyBenchmarks. This will include the development of new resources, support forCareers Leaders and establishing Careers Hubs. The careers strategy sets out that that every school needs a Careers Leader whohas the skills and commitment, and backing from their senior leadership team, todeliver the careers programme across all eight Gatsby Benchmarks. Every schoolis expected to name this Careers Leader and publish contact details on theirwebsite from September 2018. More information about the role andresponsibilities of the Careers Leader is set out in a new guide, ‘Understanding therole of the Careers Leader’. 8 The way in which careers guidance will continue to be considered during Ofstedinspection is set out in Ofsted’s Common Inspection Framework 9 and SchoolInspection Handbook. 10 A successful careers guidance programme will also bereflected in higher numbers of pupils progressing to positive destinations such asapprenticeships, technical routes, school sixth forms, sixth form colleges, furthereducation colleges, universities or employment. Destination measures provideclear and comparable information on the success of schools in helping all of theirpupils take qualifications that offer them the best opportunity to continue ineducation or training. We publish KS4 and 16-18 (KS5) education destinations inperformance tables on gov.uk 11, meaning that they are now an established part ofthe accountability system.Enterprise Advisers are senior business volunteers who work closely with a local school to help develop apractical careers plan.8The Careers & Enterprise Company and Gatsby Charitable Foundation (2018) Understanding the Role ofthe Careers Leader.
