All students and parents should have access to high-quality information about future study options and labour market opportunities.

By the age of 14, all students at RCC will have accessed and used information about career paths and the labour market to inform their own decisions on study options and KS4 study choices.

We encourage parents and carers to access and use the information contained in the LMI tab to the right to support their children in making choices about their futures.
