Provider Access
This policy statement sets out Saracens High School’s arrangements for managing the access of providers to pupils at the school for the purpose of giving them information about the provider’s education or training offer.
This complies with the school’s legal obligations under Section 42B of the Education Act 1997.
Pupil entitlement
All pupils in years 8-13 are entitled:
to find out about technical education qualifications and apprenticeships opportunities, as part of a careers programme which provides information on the full range of education and training options available at each transition point;
to hear from a range of local providers about the opportunities they offer, including technical education and apprenticeships – through options events, assemblies and group discussions and taster events;
to understand how to make applications for the full range of academic and technical courses.
In addition to the legal requirement, Year 7 pupils are introduced to careers in their summer term. Providers are welcome to request access to these events.
Management of provider access requests
Procedure
A provider wishing to request access should contact Dr Stevens (Principal).
