Using Careerpilot to help meet the Gatsby Benchmarks
Careerpilot as part of your whole-school career provision
Careerpilot can be used to support achievement of all eight of the Gatsby Benchmarks in your school or college.
You can find out more about the Gatsby Benchmarks on the Careers and Enterprise website.
Careerpilot can be used as part of a stable careers plan across your whole school or college.
Careerpilot puts the students at the centre of the career programme and provides activities and resources to support schools in delivering effective careers for 11-19 year olds, with support for the careers leader, career advisers and teaching staff.
The information students build in their Career Tools reports will help career staff, parents and career advisers find out more about what their students are interested in - which is great for Gatsby 3 - meeting individual needs.
If a school/college is embedding Careerpilot across their careers programme then they will be meeting many of the Gatsby Benchmarks.
