Students at RFHCS receive a comprehensive careers education to ensure they make informed decisions about their immediate next steps and their future career options.  In Year 11, all students receive a 1:1 appointment with a trained careers guidance adviser as part of a dedicated careers-based learning experience aimed at building confidence in preparing for next steps.  They also receive support from teachers to make college applications and attend the relevant open evenings of possible post 16 destinations.

Leavers are given independent support and advice to plan what happens when they leave. 

The decision about what and where to study after the age of sixteen can seem bewildering for any young person. We believe that ensuring successful progression at sixteen is central to our work and every year pupils leave the school to enter college, sixth form, or start employment.

We track and support all our leavers for up to 5 years after they move on. 

Please see below for our CEG Policy and other relevant information. 

The careers lead at the school is John Howley, who also works as the school's maths teacher.  He can be contacted by emailing admin@royalfree.camden.sch.uk.
