Careers Information
Every young person needs high-quality career guidance to make informed decisions about their future.
Good career guidance is a necessity for delivering technical education reforms and is a vehicle for social justice: those young people without social capital or home support suffer most from poor career guidance.
This is why Coppice is committed to curating and developing an extensive library of resources for our students, all of which you can explore below.
Our named Careers Leader is Nick Fox, and can be contacted at nfox@coppiceschool.net
Parents and carers please note you can find career information on the school website to support your child/children with making decisions about their future.
This can be accessed by clicking on the Parental Information tab at the bottom of the page.
We would welcome any feedback on the resources available.
