THE SHINE CAREERS PRIMARY PROGRAMME

The Shine Careers Primary Programme helps you to support the raising of standards of achievement for all your primary age children and broaden their horizons and aspirations with regard to their futures.

Preparing your pupils for the future is a very important part of teaching. For some children it will be making a successful transition to high school at the end of year 6. For others it will be understanding why they are learning so many things and how they may be useful in the future. Some children need to make the connection between education and success, opportunity and a good life in the future.

The Shine Careers Primary Programme can be adapted to meet the needs of your children. We understand the need to address the concerns you have for your pupils. In the programme we:

• introduce STEM careers
• challenge gender self stereotyping
• reinforce the importance of literacy and numeracy in their learning both in school and later life
• help pupils understand that they need a wide range of enterprise skills
• introduce the idea of going to university
