Promoting a career development culture is an essential part of the mission and ethos of BCSF. We aim to support the aspirations of all our students and to ensure that they gain the knowledge, skills and experience they need to make progress and succeed in learning and employment. We believe that effective careers education, information and guidance not only contributes to the well-being of individuals but also to the wellbeing of their families, the communities to which they belong, wider society, businesses and the economy.
Our careers provision consists of the following:

- Regular careers presentations delivered by a range of professionals from a wide range of sectors
- University visits and talks
- 1:1 careers guidance meetings with impartial careers advisors
- Careers information & guidance through our personal development curriculum
- Knowledge of how careers links to their a-level subjects
