It has never been more important to help young people develop the essential skills, knowledge and experience to fulfil their potential and thrive in the world of work.
We at Big Green Fox are therefore committed to careers education starting earlier, in primary schools, and supporting educators in delivering a competency, not just content, based education which helps young people better understand the purpose of school.
Our first resource, Career Detectives, is a powerful tool to help teachers embed careers education within the core curriculum. The resource raises aspirations by making links between educational subjects and future career opportunities and broadens young people’s horizons by educating them about the wide range of opportunities in the world of work.
