Careers & UCAS

At The Maynard we recognise that effective careers education is vital for preparing young people for working life. It boosts motivation, achievement and helps students to develop the skills needed to make informed decisions about their future.

We have a planned and progressive programme of Careers education which runs throughout the school. Our provision encompasses a wide range of activities and events, which includes how to make good decisions at transitional points, access to the Morrisby Online Careers platform, preparation for work experience, labour market information, evaluation of skills needed for a variety of sectors, links to local employers through our Careers Club, Biz Whizz visits from industry experts, ASK apprenticeship speakers, STEM events and so much more.
