Welcome to our Careers Page

My name is Ms Eudene Griffith and I am the Lead Careers, PSHE and Trust Mentor for Titan St George’s and Titan Aston Academy. I have a passion for success and progression in everything I do. I aim to encourage all students to share the same desire to grow and develop their personal development skills and career aspirations while attending Titan Academy. Our Careers Education, Information, Advice and Guidance plan is designed to support all students to achieve their desired progression routes whether it be College, Higher Education, Training or Employment. I support students to make informed decisions with their Post 16 progression choices to achieve their dream jobs in the future.

We believe Titan students should have the opportunity to first-class Careers guidance. Our programme is designed around the eight Gatsby Benchmarks that provide us with a clear Careers strategy. Students attend a Careers session each week where they learn about employability skills and are presented with up to date labour market information. The sessions are ran in a classroom setting allowing students to hold classroom discussions on their career plans and aspirations. Students are also provided with an option to meet with the Careers lead to review and discuss their plans from post 16 transition options. The Careers sessions cover a range of topics to support students to understand more about themselves, to make an independent choice between education, training or employment, to know what employer are looking for when recruiting and to prepare them to make the best plan for their future.

Please review the Gatsby Benchmarks on the link below to understand the drive behind or Careers provision.
