Abstract

The Gatsby Benchmarks mark a new and constructive government-backed approach to improving the quality and consistency of careers guidance provision in schools and colleges in England. The new role of careers leader has also been established to encourage organisations to develop integrated provision, with a training programme commissioned by the Careers and Enterprise Company (CEC) for this role. As part of the course team for one of the commissioned training providers, I reflect on the early insights and lessons of these new developments, particularly the needs and concerns of the new careers leaders as they navigate demanding educational environments.
