Careers Programme

At North Birmingham Academy we understand the importance of preparing students for the world of work after education through the development of knowledge and skills around working life and career pathways. Accordingly, Careers Education, Information and Guidance (CEIAG) forms and integral part of our curriculum, so that we can encourage all students to consider a broad range of pathways, careers and roles for their future, including academic, technical and vocational options. To best support our students, our CEIG programme starts from Year 7 and continues to Year 13.

Labour Market Information

We are keen to prepare our students for the world of work, and the latest information about the skills and job opportunities in the local area can be found in this PDF. It’s fully interactive and includes links to useful websites and videos from people working in industry to help all of our students make informed career pathway choices.
