Careers education advice and guidance

 At London Enterprise academy, we strongly believe in the importance of Careers Education Information Advice and Guidance (CEIAG). Our main objective is to equip our pupils with the right skills, tools and knowledge in order to enable them to attain excellent educational progression and successful future career pathways. We recognise that excellent careers education will lead to successful career pathways for our pupils and positively impact their lives. 

We have a dedicated Careers and Aspirations Team at LEA and their primary role is to provide careers, education, information, advice and guidance to help students make aspirational and realistic choices about their educational journey and future. Our aim is to provide our students with the foundations to achieve their goals and dreams.
