St Catherine’s College is committed to preparing students for the world of work and supporting them to make informed decisions about their future options. We want our students to stand shoulder to shoulder with their peers. We have an established careers programme that is evaluated and updated on an annual basis. Our careers programme is mapped against the Gatsby Benchmarks and the Careers Development Institute Framework. We have successfully completed the re-assessment for Investors in People and we continue to hold this prestigious award for another three years (July 2022).
