Careers
At Finch Woods Academy, Careers is a vital part of the school curriculum. It gives pupils hope and ambition and provides them with the knowledge to succeed in their future.
Careers is delivered to all year groups with the aim of all pupils gaining as many realistic and engaging opportunities as possible during their time at the school which will allow them to realise their true potential.
To measure and assess the impact of our Careers Programme on our pupils we utilise the Unifrog Careers Portal. Please see the links below to gain more information regarding Unifrog:
