University and Career Decisions
SPW Careers provides a careers and university education, information and guidance programme, StudentPathways,which supports students to explore their career and university aspirations. We also support schools to improve their careers guidance and provide a careers programme which is bench-marked against internationally recognised standards of excellence, one of which is the Gatsby careers benchmark. Here are some examples of how we work with schools.
