Gatsby Benchmarks

The Gatsby Foundation state that

‘Good career guidance is critical if young people are to raise their aspirations and capitalise on the opportunities available to them. In 2013 we commissioned Sir John Holman to research what pragmatic actions could improve career guidance in England and subsequently he developed the Good Career Guidance Benchmarks.’

The benchmarks that have been set up as a result of this work act as our guidance to ensure GEIAG is both informative and bespoke to learners needs and interests.

There are 8 Benchmarks set out by the Gatsby Foundation, they are listed in the pictures above. If you want to read more about what each benchmark entails take a look at the booklet below.

You will notice these pictures throughout the web site where the different sections meet parts of the criteria listed for the specific benchmark pictured.

Here at Bradford Academy we are regularly assessing our careers provision through Compass and against the benchmarks to guide development of the programme to ensure we deliver a well rounded offer.
