Careers

“The school’s curriculum puts the needs of pupils at its heart. First and foremost, pupils study essential academic subjects, including English, mathematics and science. Then pupils are able to choose options from across a wide range of academic and vocational courses. Finally, there is a fantastic enrichment curriculum. Pupils develop hobbies and interests, contribute to their community, and improve their health and well-being”. (OFSTED 2020)

At Harmonize Academy, our aim is to help students to choose a career that is right for them. We are fully committed to careers education and guidance (CEG) for all of our students and evaluate our practice against the Gatsby Charitable Foundation’s Benchmarks. CEG is an integral part of our provision for all students and it is taught within the PSHE (Personal Social Health and Education) curriculum within all key stages, although there is some cross-over into subjects.

Harmonize Academy is nationally accredited by the Quality in Careers Standard as fully meeting all the accreditation criteria incorporating the Gatsby Benchmarks. July 2024.

Assistant Principal, Karo Onowighose took a group of students to SPL Change Academy Taster day in Kirkby on 14th February 2025 which provided students with the opportunity to do some LIVE plastering sessions.  The 2hr sessions provided students with useful plastering skills.

Feedback from the students was very positive.  Carter from Year 10 said, "I enjoyed the day and would highly recommend it to a friend".

Gerrard from Year 11 said, "I am considering taking a career in plastering and will submit an application form to Hugh Baird College".
