Careers Programme Overview
Careers education at Trinity Academy Brixton is a strategic priority. Our programme is carefully planned, regularly reviewed, and designed to ensure that every student is supported to make ambitious, informed choices about their future.
Our Careers Programme is structured, progressive, and inclusive, ensuring that all students - regardless of background - can access high-quality guidance, meaningful employer encounters, and personalised support.
Trinity Ambition Programme
All students at Trinity Academy follow the Trinity Ambitions Programme, a structured Careers journey from Year 7 to Year 13.
This programme sets out what every student is entitled to receive, including career exploration, employer encounters, workplace experiences, guidance interviews and application support.
The programme reflects our belief that with the right support, no doors are closed for Trinity students.
