Information for Parents and Carers

The South Midlands Careers Hub is here to support your child’s school or college in delivering high-quality, meaningful careers education. We do this by upskilling Careers Leaders in education settings, providing resources, and sharing ‘what works’ through promoting good practice.

Every school and college is required to share their careers programme information on their website. To learn more about what is delivered in your child’s education setting, including an overview of the programme, what your child will be taking part in, and Careers Leader contact details, please visit their school or college’s website.

Our Careers Hub has produced the following resources for parents/carers that have been shared with your child’s school or college. You can access them below:

Talking Futures

It is widely recognised that parents are the most influential force in a young person’s career and education decision-making.
