The policy context for careers: concerns
Overall availability, consistency and quality of careers provision Adequate funding Levels of awareness in schools about careers and recent changes Sufficient support and guidance available to schools Impartiality of careers services, particularly for vocational options Lack of data about either careers provision or outcomes Suitable monitoring and accountability mechanisms Low prevalence of school-wide and curriculum-led approaches A low priority for schools with little time devoted to careers More complex progression routes for learners International evidence of negative outcomes from similar policies Ownership falls between BIS-DfE, most funding from latter withdrawn Long-term economic, equity and social costs p.20

Careers 2020 Phase TwoWhat is actually happening on the ground?Eight recommendations
1: Schools should have one leader responsible for careers
2: Schools should have one employer-governor lead on careers
3: Schools should provide consistent careers support to all learners 4: Ofsted should explicitly inspect careers
5: Government should publish open data on careers activities
6: Government should publish open data on careers outcomes
7: The NCS should provide all-age careers support
8: The NCS should co-ordinate careers work locally and nationally
