Education Scotland have published a new learning resource which provides support to develop practice related to career education. 
This is the first in a suite of learning resources and introduces the Career Education Standard (3-18) together with its context, purpose and expectations in a logical and manageable format. The materials include a self-evaluation tool and contain references to How good is our school? (4th edition).
The resource has been developed to contribute to professional learning for practitioners at all levels working with children and young people in a variety of settings. Engaging with this professional learning resource will help you build on your existing practice.
Learning outcomes
As a result of engaging with this learning you will have:
- an understanding of the purpose and aim of the Career Education Standard (3 – 18) (CES);
- an understanding of the part you are expected to play, along with partners, in the implementation of the CES;
- an understanding of the entitlements for children and young people;
- developed, through self-evaluation, your understanding of the CES expectations in relation to your current practice;
- identified areas of the CES expectations for your professional learning; and
- a plan to take forward manageable changes to your practice.
