Good careers education can inspire students, develop their awareness of their own strengths, interests and motivations, and improve social mobility. It can open students’ eyes to careers they may never have considered and enables them to make informed decisions about their next steps. Research shows that effective careers education leads to improved behaviour, motivation and attainment.
