About Me
I am a post-graduate qualified, RCDP careers adviser with over 20 years experience in both education and community settings. I have worked in schools, school sixth forms, sixth form colleges and FE colleges offering one to one interventions, drop-in sessions and groupworks and supporting the design and delivery of effective careers guidance services. In education, I work actively in the follow-up and placement of schools and college leavers, helping institutions to track their students for the purpose of the September Offer, Annual Activity Surveys and Destinations Measure. I have also had substantial experience working with unemployed 16-18 year olds and adults looking for career change or a return to education. As a qualified assessor, I have trained careers service IAG staff - and also delivered CPD sessions to teachers and staff in schools. I have overseen the running of two public career libraries, developed and published career materials, oragnised career events, developed and written content for a careers website. Prior to my current work as an independent adviser in 4 local schools/college, I have worked for the local authority as a career consultant - advising schools on the statutory guidance and its implications. I have worked with a local network of higher and further education providers as a consultant in the development of support tools and resources which promote good practice in IAG delivery for local young people.
