“The College offers many career opportunities and resources to students, parents and carers, which are designed to support decision-making. Many staff and areas of the college come together to provide the quality careers education programme, and high quality careers education and guidance is seen as a collective responsibility of the organisation and therefore cannot be delivered in isolation”
