Preparing for the future has never been more important. At Drayton Manor, we are committed to providing exceptional Careers Education, Information, Advice, and Guidance (CEIAG) to help students navigate their journey toward fulfilling career paths. Our robust careers program is integrated across all year groups through lessons, tutor periods, trips, visits, and invaluable work experience opportunities.

With the Government requiring all young people in England to remain in education or training until the end of the academic year in which they turn 18, careers guidance plays a critical role in shaping successful futures.
