Welcome to Careers at Broadwater School

Our principles Work Hard; Be Kind; Make a Difference are instilled into our culture and refected in our Careers provision. Broadwater students are encouraged to widen their knowledge and focus their ambition giving them the self-confidence to aspire higher and to make secure choices for their future.

The designated Careers Lead at Broadwater School is Mrs Turpin, who works closely with staff and outside agencies, local further and higher education providers, Enterprise M3 and our link Career Enterprise Adviser. This ensures a wide experience for our students. Mr Nathan Smith-Rogers (Deputy Headteacher and member of the senior leadership team) oversees Careers at strategic level.

There are assemblies hosted by local colleges, universities and apprenticeship providers, sessions devoted to careers education, encounters with employers, and access to independent career advice.

The Careers Education Information Advice and Guidance (CEIAG) programme is progressive for students in years 7 to 11 and follows the eight Gatsby benchmarks as recommended by the government. 

If you have any questions related to careers education at Broadwater School, please telephone the school office or email Sonya Turpin at sturpin@broadwater.surrey.sch.uk
