A Bill to require schools in England to provide access to their premises and pupils to representatives from post-16 education establishments and others providing guidance on careers, training and courses; and for connected purposes.
The Careers Guidance (Access to Schools) Bill would require schools in England to allow visits by representatives from post-16 education providers and other organisations that offer careers guidance. The aim is to give pupils direct, in‑school information about further education, training and courses after leaving school by enabling on-site access and discussions with these providers.
The bill is at the 2nd Reading in the Commons, an early stage of the legislative process.
