Chelmsford County High School for Girls

Subjects

Careers & Connexions

Connexions is a new information, advice, guidance and support service for all 13-19 year olds in England, and incorporates Careers Education and Guidance.

The Careers Education and Guidance programme is an important means of motivating students to raise aspirations and attainments. We firmly believe that students in Years 9, 10 and 11 have an entitlement to a Careers Education and Guidance programme which will encourage them to see career development as a life long process. Working in conjunction with Careers Essex, parents, representative from local industry and partner schools, the School aims to provide a high quality Careers Education and Guidance programme to all our students.

'Take Your Daughter to Work' Scheme

To widen the understanding and appreciation of the working world beyond the curriculum careers lessons, we would like to instigate a 'Take Your Daughter to Work' scheme for the current Year 10 students and incorporate the scheme in future Careers programmes.
