Careers in Your Curriculum Programme

The Careers in Your Curriculum Programme prepares practitioners to embed careers and work-related experiences across the curriculum.

Careers and work-related experiences (CWRE) is a cross-cutting theme in the Curriculum for Wales. This means that schools and other settings must include this content across all Areas.

Careers Wales are piloting this programme for teachers in:
