CAREERS and WORK-RELATED EXPERIENCES (CWRE)
Our curriculum incorporates Careers and Work-Related Experiences (CWRE) as a cross-cutting theme for all of our learners. We aim to support all learners to make progress in their knowledge, skills and experiences in readiness for the world of work.
CWRE is managed by our Careers Coordinator supported by our Careers Team and multiple agencies, including Careers Wales. We are currently taking part in the Careers Wales Quality Award pilot, along with 37 other schools in Wales. It will support the development of purposeful and relevant CWRE across the curriculum. A link to our CWRE Policy can be found here and further information from Careers Wales can be found below.
