CEIAG (Careers Education, Information, Advice and Guidance)
At St. Peter’s we are striving to achieving stage 3 (Gold) of the Quality in Careers Standard Award.

Destinations
Destinations data is a measure that shows where students end up after leaving St. Peter’s and which course of study they follow. It also identifies those students that are NEET (Not in Education Employment or Training), allowing the school and the local authority to follow up with additional support in order to help them re-engage in education.
