Teacher Area
Foxfields Academy is committed to providing high quality Careers, Education, Information, Advice and Guidance to help inspire students and to enable them to make rational informed career decisions. Foxfields Academy aims to meet all eight Benchmarks identified by the Gatsby Foundation.
Our Leadership team views careers as not being the responsibility of a Careers Leader and a small number of teachers, but of all staff in schools and colleges. We can make small changes in the curriculum that can have a big impact in the classrooms.
If you’d like help or support to embed careers in your subject contact scott.hamilton@foxfields-cit.co.uk who is the Careers Leader for our School.

At Foxfields Academy we would like all subject areas to do the following:
Have a prominent display that links subject learning and skill development to different careers.
Develop links with businesses and organisations to invite alumni and other external speakers to come into school (virtually where an actual visit is not feasible).
Where appropriate to organise external visits by students to local businesses/organisations.
Record careers learning opportunities for students in schemes of learning.
