Working closely with PSHEEC, Careers education is taught to all students and embedded throughout the school, from Years 7 to 11 and helps to guide pupils along their career paths through subject and college selection, apprenticeships, volunteer work, personal statement and CV planning.

Please use the links on the Parents/Students pages for more information on college open evenings, applying for apprenticeships and useful information on Career Connect.

The Lead for Careers guidance At St Augustine of Canterbury Catholic Academy is Mr S Eckerlsey; you can contact Mr Eckersley by email at seckersley@staugustine.sjcmat.co.uk or by telephone at 01744 678112.

As parents and carers, you play a vital role in ensuring your child gains the best information, advice and guidance to prepare them for life once they leave school.

At St Augustine’s, we are always seeking out people from the world of work and FE/HE education to come and offer your experiences and insights to our students.

You can do this by speaking during an assembly, working with a small group or class or attending a lunchtime drop-in session.

If you would like to get involved or would like to offer any feedback, please contact the school’s careers lead.
