Information for Teachers and Staff

Staff play a central role in the Careers education and learning that our students experience. Staff contribute effectively through:

  • Careers-focused conversations at relevant points in student learning
  • Referring to the skills and attributes that students are developing to help students understand how they are relevant to the workplace
  • Encouraging students to challenge stereotypes and seek opportunities that are suited to their own needs, interests and aspirations
  • Delivering high-impact learning through our Personal and Careers Development Curriculum
  • Delivering careers-based activities through the weekly tutor programme
  • Signposting students to the relevant careers resources and specifically Unifrog
  • Supporting students in understanding how their interests link to subject choices and career opportunities
  • Support students in their applications for post-16 and 18 next steps

The Unifrog Platform

Platform Overview

Students and staff have their own log-in for the Unifrog platform, which enables students to create their own careers learning and preparation journey. The platform brings together a wide range of tools and information in one place, helping students explore their options and plan their next steps with confidence.

Key Features

Unifrog offers a comprehensive careers library, subject-specific resources, and application tools for university, apprenticeships, and employment. Tutors and subject staff can utilise these resources to support students with refining their interests, learning about different industries and job sectors, as well as giving feedback on students’ CVs and personal statements.

Staff Guidance

Staff should refer to the Unifrog resources to guide them with signposting and supporting students. These resources provide frameworks for careers-focused conversations and help ensure consistent, high-quality guidance across all departments. By embedding Unifrog into tutor time and subject teaching, staff can reinforce the connection between classroom learning and future career pathways.
