Please find attached a copy of the Career Education in a Nutshell guide which will be sent to every home of a school age child from January 2016.
Kirsty Byrne, Careers Adviser
Welcome to our Introduction to Career Education. Written for parents/carers by parents, this guide gives you important information about the exciting new programme of career education which is starting during the 2015/16 school year.
Children and young people are learning crucial skills through Curriculum for Excellence. Now they will be encouraged to understand the importance of these skills to jobs and careers. With your help and the support of teachers, employers and careers advisers from Skills Development Scotland (SDS), this will open up a world of possibilities for every child.
Yours in partnership
