Information For Teachers
All teachers at Monkwearmouth are responsible for helping the academy work towards meeting the 8 Gatsby benchmarks and for delivering a stable careers programme to pupils. During careers week, teachers deliver subject specific careers lessons to pupils and the aim of this is to allow them to understand which career paths they can take by following specific subjects, to develop essential skills employers are looking for and to raise their aspirations. This particular strand of careers work helps the academy achieve Gatsby Benchmark 4.
All teachers help pupils meet the six career development skills as set out by the CDI Framework that they will need to have positive careers. These are:
► Grow throughout life
► Explore possibilities
► Manage career
► Create opportunities
► Balance life and work
► See the big picture
