NOURISHING……..OUR 3000 PLUS SCHOOLS AND US….WE ARE ON A MISSION

THE CAREERS PROFESSION TASK FORCE CHAIRED BY DAME RUTH SILVER

OCTOBER 2010 “TOWARDS A STRONG CAREERS PROFESSION”

RECOMMENDATION 10:

The Task Force Recommends That An

Overarching NATIONAL KITE MARK

Should Be Established

To Validate The Different

CEIAG QUALITY AWARDS

For Schools, Colleges

And Work-based Learning Providers.

THE EDUCATION ACT 2011 – HOW THE STATUTORY DUTY FOR SCHOOLS

TO ‘SECURE ACCESS TO INDEPENDENT CAREERS GUIDANCE’ IS PHRASED ON FACE

OF THE ACT

[5] Careers Guidance Provided To Pupils At A School Is Independent For The Purposes Of This Section If It Is Provided Other Than By—

• (A) A Teacher Employed Or Engaged At The School, Or

• (B) Any Other Person Employed At The School

The Act therefore requires SCHOOLS to be COMMISSIONERS of Careers Guidance not providers of it (that’s not to say they will not provide SOME of it, but the new DUTY is to secure external Careers Guidance in addition to whatever a school provides internally)

1. In 2011/12 we worked to establish this as NATIONAL VALIDATION

FOR ENGLAND’S DEDICATED CEIAG QUALITY AWARDS which

accredit the FOUR components of CEIAG

• Careers Education

• Careers Information

• Careers Advice &

• Careers Guidance

2. The Quality in Careers Standard © is owned by and overseen by

the QUALITY IN CAREERS CONSORTIUM BOARD

• Established in January 2012

• Initially chaired by Dame Ruth Silver, now by Dr. Barrie Hopson

Details of the founding members of the Consortium (including AoC,

ASCL & NAHT), who serves on the Board and of the National

Validation team are on the Quality in Careers website

http://www.qualityincareers.org.uk

• Our Approach to national validation: NO COMPROMISES

The ELEVEN CEIAG QUALITY AWARD providers which have met the 15 National Validation criteria :

1. C & K Careers Quality Standard 2. Career Connect CEIAG Award 3. Career Mark 4. Inspiring IAG 5. Investing in Quality (Cambridgeshire CEIAG

Award) 6. Investor in Careers 7. Quality Award in CEIAG (Prospects) 8. Recognition of Quality Award for CEIAG

(Essex) 9. Sheffield City Region CEIAG Award 10. Future Focus (Staffordshire ENTRUST CEIAG

Award) 11. Stoke on Trent CEIAG Award

WHAT DO DEDICATED CEIAG QUALITY AWARDS DO?

• Act as a DEVELOPMENT TOOL for schools and colleges to

identify: • what they do well,

• what do not so well, • put in place action plans to address areas of need • Uniquely assess the quality of all 4 aspects of CEIAG

against rigorous externally-determined national measures • All external assessors are occupationally competent CEG

specialists: • over 100 of them across England

• Confirm to parents, employers & the community at large

that: • the school/college not only takes CEIAG seriously

• but also has been assessed externally • and is assured they are doing the BEST of practice in the

country

WHAT DO WE ASSESS? OUR SEVEN TESTS FOR

SUFFICIENCY : Every School Needs To Address & Therefore Every Awarding Body Must Assess

1. Providing effective leadership, management and promotion of

career-related learning and careers guidance provision

2. Ensuring appropriate initial staff training and continuing professional development (CPD)

to secure the competency required of all staff

3. Providing a planned and progressive programme of careers, employability and enterprise education

in the curriculum

4. Securing independent and impartial careers advice and guidance

5. Working with employers and other external partners (e.g. employer engagement)

and agencies such as FE, WBL & HE

6. Involving and supporting families and carers

7. Monitoring, evaluating, & measuring the impact of careers provision

(including evidence of learning outcomes and progression)

OUR DEDICATED CEIAG QUALITY AWARDS:

VOLUNTARY TAKE-UP BY JANUARY

2017

OVER 1100 SCHOOLS/COLLEGES across England

• now hold or are working towards

• one of these dedicated CEIAG quality awards

• which comply with national Quality in Careers Standard criteria

• This includes over 30% of England’s State Secondary Schools

• and 30% of our Sixth Form Colleges

OUR SHARED MISSION : To Persuade Heads & Principals

To “DO WHAT IS RIGHT” = 3 Wise Choices

Organisations which meet

THE MATRIX STANDARD

for advice and guidance for learning and work

SPECIALIST CAREERS ADVISERS

who are qualified and competent to provide

independent and impartial Careers Advice and

Guidance (QCF level 6 in Career Development/Guidance)

WHAT DOES DfE SAY NOW? REVISED STATUTORY

GUIDANCE

DIRECT EXTRACT FROM “Careers Guidance and Inspiration in Schools” MARCH 2015

https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/careers-guidance-advice-for-schools

Evaluation and monitoring of advice and guidance Quality assurance and feedback

Paragraph 67. In Developing Careers Provision For Pupils, There Are Currently Three Aspects Of Quality Assurance That Schools Should Take Into Consideration:

1. The quality of the school careers programme. The Government recommends that all schools should work towards a quality award for careers education, information, advice and guidance as an effective means of carrying out a self-review and evaluation of the school's programme. The national validation, the Quality in Careers Standard, will assist schools to determine an appropriate quality award to pursue.

2. THE QUALITY OF INDEPENDENT CAREERS PROVIDERS. The recognised national quality standard for information, advice and guidance (IAG) services is the matrix Standard.

To achieve the Standard, organisations will need to demonstrate that they provide a high quality and impartial service. Schools can access an online register of organisations accredited to the matrix Standard.

3. THE QUALITY OF CAREERS PROFESSIONALS WORKING WITH THE SCHOOL. The Career Development Institute has developed a set of professional standards for careers advisers, a register of advisers holding postgraduate qualifications and guidelines on how advisers can develop their own skills and gain higher qualifications.

The main qualifications for careers professionals are the Qualification in Career Guidance (QCG) (which replaced the earlier Diploma in Careers Guidance) and the Level 6 Diploma in Career Guidance and Development. Schools can view a register of careers professionals or search for a career development professional who can deliver a particular service or activity.

“Good Career Guidance” (The Gatsby Charitable Foundation, 2014)

http://www.gatsby.org.uk/education/programmes/good-career-guidance

The welcome GATSBY BENCHMARKS describe the components (BENCHMARKS 2-7) of a STABLE CAREERS PROGRAMME (BENCHMARK 1).

Our national validation criteria (1.1-1.7) for the QUALITY IN CAREERS STANDARD DEFINE the organisational, professional and curriculum development and accountability processes that underpin quality and thus must be measured and assessed by CEG specialist assessors working for the 12 CEIAG Quality Award providers

Gatsby involves very helpful self-assessment, but we affirm that

• only with external assessment of the quality of CEIAG

• by a nationally validated CEIAG quality award can a school (& critically its cohort of PARENTS) be

confident that it provides the quality of the best for all of its

students.

THE HOUSE OF COMMONS

The Business, Energy & Industrial Strategy Committee

and The Education Committee have established a

Joint Sub Committee on EDUCATION, SKILLS & the ECONOMY

Its first report, published in July 2016 was on

‘careers education, information, advice and guidance’ ://www.publications.parliament.uk/pa/cm201617/cmselect/cmese/205/20501.h

tm http

Paragraphs 52 & 53 related directly to the QUALITY IN CAREERS

STANDARD,

the 12 CEIAG Quality Awards and the ‘matrix Standard’.

Basically the Committee said it was “complex” and “confusing”

and they recommended

MERGER of the Quality in Careers Standard & matrix

And bringing the 12 Awards together as one.

THE QUALITY IN CAREERS CONSORTIUM’S RESPONSE

Was A Joint Paper With

Assessment Services, CDI And Careers England

published in August 2016

“IMPROVING CAREERS SUPPORT FOR EVERYONE IN

ENGLAND”

We set out why that Joint Sub-Committee recommendation was

flawed.

Our joint response was made public and sent to DfE.

1st November 2016 the DfE issued HMG’s formal parliamentary

response

to the Joint Sub-Committee report

http://www.publications.parliament.uk/pa/cm201617/cmselect/c

mese/757/757.pdf

Included in HMG’S RESPONSE was section 9 (page 11)

accepting our line and rejecting the proposed merger with

matrix

But ACCEPTING the Committee’s call to

simplify, clarify and rationalize

CEIAG QA arrangements in schools.

OUR PLANS for the next stage of CEIAG Quality

Assurance

We are ALL agreed that we need greater brand clarity and therefore brand recognition.

We need a much simpler ‘how do we describe this in the LIFT?’ regime.

The Consortium has reviewed in detail a number of options

which we might seek to pursue with MINIMAL COSTS

involved.

We have concluded that the

simplest and most cost-effective option is

to move to a way of enabling

the 12 current award providers to become

AWARDING BODIES for the QUALITY IN CAREERS

STANDARD

as the sole public-facing award brand

WHAT ARE WE WORKING TO ACHIEVE?

Greater Simplicity

in the eyes of schools, of school leaders, governors, parents and

politicians.

School leaders tells us that they are well-used to choosing

which EXAMINATION BOARD to utilize for GCSE & A LEVEL.

The key is they are choosing GCSE & A LEVEL not the name of the

Board providing this (they value choice of offering from different

Boards)

– and all Examining Boards are regulated.

So our objective is for the SINGLE public-facing BRAND

to be “The QUALITY IN CAREERS STANDARD”

as the award a school would achieve

with a choice of 12 regulated awarding bodies.

The awarding bodies would be free to trade as they are named now.

HOW CAN THE DfE MINISTER HELP?

• Be assured that we have kept the DFE Careers Team

of officials aware of our discussions and potential

plans.

• We in turn hope the Minister might move in his

proposed revised Statutory Guidance from

‘recommending’ schools should achieve and maintain

a CEIAG QUALITY AWARD

to ‘STRONGLY RECOMMENDING’

• And support schools to do so through a dedicated

‘careers premium’ of say at least

£1000 per school per annum

• provided they commit to achieve and maintain the

Quality in Careers Standard

“SIMPLIFYING, CLARIFYING & RATIONALISING QUALITY ASSURANCE FOR CEIAG”

“THE QUALITY IN CAREERS STANDARD” • Available across the whole country • Provided by 12 awarding bodies regulated by the Quality in Careers
