SDS Education in schools
How SDS Education can support schools in 2024/25
We support primary* and secondary schools across Scotland through the delivery of professional learning workshops and development of resources that supports the continuous embedding of career education in the classroom.
Our professional learning workshops focus on building practitioner awareness, knowledge and understanding of the themes outlined in our 2024/25 professional learning offer below.
If practitioners can embed these key career education themes into day-to-day learning and teaching, then they will be addressing the expectations of the Career Education Standard. In turn this will help young people understand their capabilities and develop their aspirations to make informed learning and career choices.
*Due to being a small team we can only look to support primary school clusters.
