Good Career Guidance, the next 10 years - reflections from Sir John Holman

Education > Latest

I was first convinced of the importance of good career guidance in schools and colleges when I was a headteacher, particularly for those young people without the social capital to be supported elsewhere. This year will mark a decade since David Sainsbury asked me to embark on my work which defined the eight Gatsby Benchmarks of Good Career Guidance. There has since been significant progress and there is much to celebrate. We now have powerful evidence that the using the Benchmarks leads to a positive impact on the progression of young people.

GOOD CAREER GUIDANCE: THE NEXT TEN YEARS

Education > Programme

Much has been achieved in the decade since Gatsby’s Founder, David Sainsbury, first asked Sir John Holman to describe what world class careers guidance looks like. During this time, we have seen impressive innovation in careers activities from schools, colleges, and employers and the Benchmarks are now embedded at the heart of the careers system. As we look ahead to the next ten years of Good Career Guidance, we are embarking on a programme of analysis to ensure our work continues to deliver the greatest impact for all young people. During 2023 we conducted a programme of stakeholder engagement, consultation, and research, including working closely with Government officials. We will publish our findings in full in a report in late 2024.
