OUR CEIAG CURRICULUM

Life ready with ambition curriculum intent logo

Our key priorities for Careers Education, Information Advice and Guidance for Walker Riverside Academy for the 2023/24 academic year is that all students leave our Academy Life Ready with Ambition

Our measure for this is to ensure that all Year 11 students have a suitable post-16 destination and reduce the number of our students Not in Education, Employment or Training (NEET). 

Our other priorities have been aligned with the Gatsby Benchmarks (see below) to ensure that we are complying with the government’s statutory guidance. The Compass Evaluation tool has been used to identify how close we are to achieving each benchmark.

KNOWLEDGE ORGANISERS

Our Knowledge Organisers are 'learning mats' that have been designed to contain all of the key learning for that subject's topic. Our students will use these within their lessons but are also encouraged to use them to support their own learning, homework, and for revision. 

Our Careers KOs are available below; separated into year group/key stage.

Year 7 Knowledge Organisers

Year 8 Knowledge Organisers

Year 9 Knowledge Organisers

Year 10 Knowledge Organisers
