The new Compass evaluation is now live on Compass and Compass+.
Over the past month, the South Midlands Careers Hub team has been reviewing the updated questions and working to ensure a consistent approach to self-evaluation across the South Midlands. This has included:
Workshops at the Careers Hub conference in September
Additional sessions during Career Leader Network meetings
Gathering frequently asked questions
While we’re making good progress, this is a significant change and one that will continue to evolve. We’re committed to supporting all schools and colleges through their first Compass evaluation under the new framework this term.
Thank you to everyone who has already booked their Compass evaluation support meeting – we’ll complete the evaluation together during that session. To ensure we can support you effectively and complete the Autumn evaluation within the allotted time, it is imperative that you review the compass questions in advance, to familiarise yourself with the updates and changes that have been made.
If you haven’t yet booked, please do so asap with your Careers Consultant to ensure timely support.
Link to CEC guidance for each type of Compass evaluation
Please be assured that this is a change for everyone, and we’re here to support you through it. We won’t have all the answers straight away and want to thank you for your patience as we continue to adapt and respond to emerging questions. Once the first round of evaluations is complete, we aim to produce a more comprehensive guide to support ongoing self-evaluation.

South Midlands Careers Hub Inclusion Conference 2025
On 1st July 2025, the South Midlands Careers Hub held its very first Inclusion Conference. It was truly inspiring to see such a passionate mix of educators from SEND settings, mainstream schools, FE SEND teams, employers, and wider stakeholders come together with a shared commitment: improving outcomes for young people with SEND. Throughout the day, we celebrated the incredible work happening across our network to ensure young people are confident, prepared, and supported as they take their next steps.
We were honoured to welcome a fantastic lineup of guest speakers and schools showcasing great practice, including:
Kelly Dillon, Senior Manager Progression, Transition and Removal of Barriers at The Careers & Enterprise Company: sharing national updates and resources for learners with SEND
Gareth Ivett, Principal of Creating Tomorrow College: promoting the incredible work being delivered across their colleges
Louise Worts, Assistant Head at Careers Lead at Daventry Hill School and Beccy Brown, Careers Lead at The Woodlands School MK: highlighting how they meet Provider Access Legislation in their schools
Lee Nelson, Work Experience Coordinator and Careers Lead at Woodlands Secondary School: delivering practical and creative ideas around embedding enterprise for learners with SEND
In addition, a huge thank you also goes to our inspiring panellists who discussed and explored two key themes that emerged from the Gatsby 10 Year review – parental engagement in careers, and meaningful encounters and experiences with employers. Our panellists included:
Roger Williams, Assistant Headteacher and Careers Lead at Ivel Valley School & College
Josh Bell, Deputy Headteacher and Careers Lead at the Academy of Central Bedfordshire
Lorraine Emerton, Partner & Recruitment, Social Values & Early Careers Section Manager at John Lewis Partnership
Sarah-Jane and Bertie from Creating Tomorrow College – two incredible young voices, sharing their insights and experiences
We would also like to thank Bedford Academy’s work experience students, Liam and Finlay, for capturing the day as our photographers.
This event marked the exciting launch of our Inclusion Community of Practice – a space for continued collaboration, learning, and innovation for our practitioners working in SEND. Thank you to everyone who attended and contributed – this is just the beginning!
This term has been packed with exciting opportunities and achievements as students across Milton Keynes schools continue to develop vital skills for their futures.

CE Academy Business Breakfast On 18th June, CE Academy in Northampton hosted a vibrant Business Breakfast, welcoming 13 local employers. Attendees heard inspiring stories from Headteacher James Thomas, Careers Leader Paul Kairis, and former student-turned-staff Lorna. Industry Partner Dave Gilmour highlighted the school’s commitment to preparing students for diverse career paths. The event sparked new partnerships in sectors like healthcare, retail, security, and construction—offering students more real-world experiences. This model of schools organising a business breakfast to develop employer networks works well, giving schools the opportunity to build a story behind their students and their aspirations.
Young Inspirer Dillon’s Apprenticeship Workshop On 8th July, Dillon Considine led his first apprenticeship session at Malcolm Arnold Academy for Year 8 students. Sharing his personal journey, Dillon introduced students to apprenticeship pathways and sparked conversations about future choices. Key takeaway: only 25% of people end up in their dream job from school—so exploring options is key! Highlights included a “Week in the life of Dillon’s apprenticeship” and started to make them think that finding and applying for an apprenticeship is competitive. We had a look at the latest apprenticeship vacancies in Northampton, and they were surprised to find that there were not as many as they would have expected.
Dillon said “Honestly, it was very much out my comfort zone to be speaking with Year 8’s and being back in school, but I really enjoyed hearing their thoughts, having them engage and answering their questions.”
DSLV Academy at National Careers Challenge Finals Six students from DSLV E-ACT Academy in Daventry competed in the National Careers Challenge finals at London’s Barbican Centre. Senior Deputy Head Teacher Bev Maughan said “their hard work, creativity and ambition have brought them to this prestigious stage, and we couldn’t be prouder! “ The National Career Challenge offers a dedicated challenge per year group; each aligned to the Gatsby Benchmarks. Each challenge is designed in response to our sponsor’s real, business-critical needs, and students build the skills required for the world of work.

Compass Time!
As we head towards the end of term, please plan in time to complete what will be your final compass evaluation against the original Gatsby Benchmarks.
Please be aware that from May 2025, additional questions have been added to the Benchmark 6 section of Compass evaluations to establish a national baseline to support measuring progress against the future work experience guarantee policy. These questions do not contribute towards an institution’s Gatsby Benchmark score. We have added the additional questions in the ‘For Information’ section below.
In September Compass evaluations will be paused until after Autumn 2025 half term, at which point the questions will be updated to reflect the updated benchmarks. The new questions are currently being piloted nationally and the schools in our hub that have engaged with Peer to Peer reviews have been invited to express an interest in being part of that testing.
Last call – Hub Buddy requests
As we mentioned in our statutory guidance briefings, we are pairing up professionals supporting careers in schools and colleges across our six local authority areas. If you or a member of staff at your school would like a Hub Buddy please complete a request here by 03/07 as we will be pairing people up and sending out introductions on Friday 4/07.
We have had a few questions about where to find the updated Gatsby ‘making it meaningful’ checklists you can find these on the Gatsby website (senior leader summary, pages 6 & 7). To make these easier to find, we have added to our FAQ Padlet under BM6 & 7.

Storing employer contacts
With Modern Work Experience planning now a priority it’s a good time to think about where and how you store your employer contacts and ensure that they are accessible to everyone in your institution who need them, and that they wont get lost as a result of a Careers Leader moving on. Careers Partners is a safe, secure and scalable database where you can store all employers, organisations and providers that deliver careers activities to your learners.
Careers Partners are only accessible to you and other Compass+ users within your institution.
Store all of your careers partners in one place
Add careers partners directly into Compass+
Upload organisations and organisation contacts into Compass+ using our Careers Partners upload template
Create contacts who are retired or not part of an organisation
Build a comprehensive record for each organisation and organisation contact so you have a full overview of the careers activities they can support
Link individual contacts or whole organisations to activities they have delivered or participated in
Export Your Careers Partners as an Excel spreadsheet to help target employer engagement more effectively.
With the updated statutory guidance for careers finally being released, this week we are mostly focusing on the our plans to support you with the implementation of this, along with some key dates, new resources and info on ILRs and peer to peer reviews.
