Careers Information

At Raise Rochdale PRS, we believe our learners deserve a bright future.That’s why Careers Education, Information, Advice, and Guidance (CEIAG) is a central part of the provision we offer. 

What is CEIAG? 

CEIAG equips learners with the knowledge and skills they need to make informed decisions about their next steps after Year 11. It supports students to explore their interests, recognise their strengths, and understand the wide range of exciting opportunities available to them. 

CEIAG at Raise Rochdale PRS 

All students take part in a weekly ‘My Futures’ lesson as part of their curriculum. Each lesson covers three key elements: 

• Exploring Employment & Employability 

• Financial Education & Enterprise 

• Guidance & Employability 

In addition to these lessons, we offer a range of wider CEIAG opportunities, which are outlined in our Careers Programme (accessible below).
