We made some significant discoveries, such as:
• 8 out of 10 parents feel employers are not doing enough to educate them about opportunities for their children.
• Over two-thirds of parents discuss careers with their children on a monthly basis, but only feel confident naming a handful of organisations — this means there could be a large amount of school-leaver programmes children are missing out on.
• All the important qualities parents looked for in an employer.

Being part of the Stoke on Trent and Staffordshire Careers Hub has been pivotal to the development of careers provision in our school. The Hub have shared good practice across their members resulting in a stronger focus on good quality provision. The annual event enabled the hub to share their vision of School Improvement Through The Lens of Careers and looking beyond the Benchmarks. It was a fantastic opportunity to share different models of school improvement and strategies to further develop careers provision to enhance the future opportunities of our young people.
Mrs A Spencer, John Taylor High SchoolIt it superb to be able to speak with local schools, colleges, and businesses in Stoke and Staffs and show how important the partnerships are to bring the skills of the future. Educating those who educate the ones shaping the aspirations of young people is essential for the industry to grow and be more sustainable.”
