Recommendation 20
20
Paragraph: 79
Despite improvements, teacher training and curriculum links for careers education remain inadequate.
Conclusion
We have heard some strong examples of careers being successfully embedded into the curriculum and the situation is improving, with 70% of schools and colleges fully achieving the relevant Gatsby benchmark, up from 38% in 2018. However, more support and guidance must be put in place to enable this: currently, teachers lack the training and support they need to be able to do this effectively, and the curriculum itself does not provide explicit links to relevant careers.
