FUTURE INTENTIONS (CEIAG) at TAHS
Careers education prepares you for the world after school. This includes thinking about how you look after yourself as an adult, how you relate to other people and how you fit into society. At TAHS the CEIAG provision is centred on our Future Intentions Programme which has three distinct stages.
All Year 11 students will be given a wide range of impartial information to make informed choices about their future. This will include an appointment with a level 6 qualified careers advisor. We also hold an annual future intentions evening where we liaise with local and specialist national colleges, training providers, employers and the voluntary sector to ensure that students can research a wide range of options.
Students will be have access to a wide range of resources to support them with their individual choices and this website will be updated with new opportunities and developments.
