We have a contract with Services for Young People who ensure that our students receive independent and impartial advice and guidance particularly at the critical times of transition. Click here for more information: https://https://www.servicesforyoungpeople.org/careers

We also work with the Careers and Enterprise Company who support us in linking with local employers to enable us to offer our students more interaction with employers. Click here for more information: www.careersandenterprise.co.uk

Through our active involvement with the Careers and Enterprise company we have been able to gain a better understanding of employability skills required by employers across Hertfordshire. This enables us to better plan and equip our students to develop these skills preparing themselves for the future and understand the language employer’s use during recruitment.
