Eat That Frog is proud of its dynamic careers programme, which starts preparing students for life after learning as soon as possible.
The Gatsby Benchmark is a new set of requirements that CEIAG must now meet.
Students need to learn to believe in themselves and their abilities in order to succeed in today’s competitive job market and in life. All students should have ready access to high-quality, unbiased Careers Education, Information, Advice, and Guidance (CEIAG).
The Gatsby Benchmarks are a set of eight criteria for quality career education in secondary and tertiary institutions. They serve as the foundation upon which the Careers Plan rests, guaranteeing high-quality career education in schools.
