Careers Education, Information, Advice and Guidance (CEIAG)

The Careers Education, Information, Advice and Guidance (CEIAG) programme at Bourne Academy enables our students to make a successful transition into further or higher education, apprenticeships and accredited training in employment.

We offer objective and impartial advice from a range of talks, visits, activities and individual interviews.

We have a dedicated Careers Library located in F11 for careers information, advice and guidance. All students are welcome to call in and see our Careers & Aspirations Lead, Mrs Barber at any time for an informal chat or to make an appointment. Students are also invited to request an appointment with our independent careers adviser.

    Appointments can be made by contacting:
