Introduction to Careers at Keystone
At Keystone we seek to transform the lives of our students. We recognise the vital role that education plays in equipping students with the skills and knowledge to thrive in the modern world. We adopt a child centred approach to ensure that a bespoke targeted offer is available for each student. This is developed through establishing authentic relationships with our students and by working with families and external providers. We aim to take an adaptive approach to enable all students to access a variety of experiences and feel valued whilst doing so.
The foremost part of our careers offer is our holistic curriculum, which is centred around developing life skills in our students. PSHE forms a regular feature across all students with ‘Aspirations’ being a focus of a whole term during each year group. Throughout this unit, as well as other areas of the PSHE curriculum, students will embark on a spiral curriculum, revisiting and enhancing previous learning to develop confidence when applying these life skills beyond the classroom.
Beyond the PSHE lessons students will explore work place skills, examples of application of skills and knowledge in real world context as well as explicit careers links in their other subjects.
