Does the careers service in the UK work?

The National Careers Council are reporting to the Government on the current state of the careers service in the UK and they've asked for our help.

It's all very timely because it coincides with Mumsnet's Workfest, sponsored by Barclays on June 15th which is all about helping mums get back into work or start their own business (still a few places left if you're interested Wink)

If you could take a couple of minutes to answer the following questions we'd be ever so grateful.

~ First off did you know there was a National Careers Service for young people adults and have you / your DC ever used it?

~ Are your children getting any careers advice in schools and if so what sort of age has that happened?

~ And what sort of career aspirations do you have for your children?

We'll let you know what the Gov say on June 5th.

Thanks

Thanks to everyone for all your really thoughtful responses. I went to a lunch with lots of influential folks in business and education and tried my best to make as many of your points as possible. Everyone left the meeting full of resolve to try and do something to make a difference and I'll endeavour to report back on what that turns out to be.

The report they were launching is here tinyurl.com/4b6lokq if anyone is interested.

Thanks again.

Carrie
