Here at Wath Academy we have a dedicated careers team providing careers advice, information, education and guidance for all students from Year 7 though to Year 13. Our Activity Plan for 2022/2023 is available as a PDF download at the bottom of the page. You can find key Ofsted and additional information about our provision in our careers policy, which is available to download in the policies section of our website. The information on the careers section of the website will be reviewed each term. The date of the next review is 21.07.23.
Enquiries relating to our careers provision should be directed to Mrs Laite, our Careers Leader; her role includes one-to-one careers interviews, planning the careers education programme and coordinating activities such as work shadowing days, mock interview days, career fairs and employer engagement. Mrs Laite is based in the school library and can be contacted by e-mail at careers@wathacademy.com or telephone (01709) 760222.
Destinations Data
Wath Academy uses destinations data (where our students go and what they do after leaving school) to monitor and measure the effectiveness of our careers guidance and improve outcomes for young people in schools. Destinations data is available on the Department for Education website. Due to the complexity of gathering this data there is a delay between students leaving school and destinations data being published.
