Career Pathways

It is so fantastic that we have been recognised as having an Outstanding Careers programme happening here at St Peter’s. We have been awarded this by Stoke-on-Trent Council for showing ‘dedication, enthusiasm and commitment’ to our Careers Programme, after we met a set of benchmarks set out to raise the aspirations of our children.

Well done to everyone involved in making our Careers Programme a success and to our wonderful children for taking part, asking questions and engaging in opportunities that can change their future!

Why we have a Careers Programme at St Peter’s.
