Inspiring Education, Inspiring Lives!

Our Careers Programme

Click here to view our 2022/23 Careers Programme.

Our Careers and Enterprise programme aims to bridge the gap between education and work.
It is underpinned by the belief that young people should be given the best support available to develop their careers and to make informed choices about education and employment. It is creating lasting links between the school and employers and enabling senior figures from the local business community – Enterprise Advisers – to help enhance schools’ careers advice and prepare young people for the future.
At Oldbury Wells we have our own dedicated careers adviser; Melanie Lawrence (Post Grad Dip QCG) who is in school one day per week, and runs appointments with students.
As a school, we provide careers education and opportunities for all students, using tools such as Unifrog to aid development and skills, as well as allowing students to explore their options and make informed choices about their futures. 
Please use the links below to explore information about careers, opportunities, and further education.
