We support people into employment who have a disability, a permanent injury, or face challenges in gaining employment by:

• Planning to identify what you want to do
• Matching you to the right employer.
• Supporting you in your new job

A vital part of living the life you want is to have work that has purpose and allows you the freedom of choice of where and how you work.

Our goal is to give you that choice. We take great care to ensure that we have a great fit between employee and employer and that the outcome is beneficial to both parties.

The employment in schools programme is a programme targeting students who are in the last two years of secondary school and face barriers to employment due to disability or learning support needs including long term physical and mental health conditions and those who identify as neuro-diverse.

Career Moves has been selected to work with student’s as we have over twenty years’ experience in providing supported employment and have been contracted to work with schools, students and their families to help to plan and prepare the student for employment when they leave school.  This adds value to and builds on the support provided by the school and other providers by focusing specifically on employment and ‘a good life’.

The programme is intended to provide support for up to two years with the aim to have a seamless transition from school into fulltime employment.

Key features of the programme include:

• No cost to the student or school
• Individualised programme for each student
• A PATH plan that will cover all of the aspects of the student’s life to identify goals and aspirations for them to live a good Life.
• All meetings will be held in school
• Being work ready
• Practical workshops
• To have an effective CV and Cover Letter format
• Interview training
• Work experience in the students’ chosen work
• Support to have a job on leaving school
