GATSBY BENCHMARKS

In 2013, the Gatsby Charitable foundation released a report after an 18-month long study on the best practice for careers advice in the UK and abroad. The study resulted in the following benchmarks;

The eight Gatsby benchmarks of Good Career Guidance:

1. A stable careers programme
2. Learning from career and labour market information
3. Addressing the needs of each pupil
4. Linking curriculum learning to careers
5. Encounters with employers and employees
6. Experiences of workplaces
7. Encounters with further and higher education
8. Personal guidance

In December 2017, the Department for Education released a new careers guidance strategy, which centres around these benchmarks. Luckily Push are here to help support your students with these. Our 'like it is' approach to outreach is funny, irreverent in style and deeply engaging for students.
