Welcome to Madani Careers

At Madani we are committed to preparing students with the knowledge and skills necessary to make informed choices about their future. Our aim is to promote a range of pathways and provide our students with the support they need to make the transition to the next stage in their education and training, and ultimately, to contribute positively to society and the world of work.

Students will need to make several key decisions during their time at Madani and the school and our careers programme prepares students for these choices through a range of activities. During their five years at Madani, students are entitled to:

• A one week work experience placement in Year 10
• Access to PS16 and post 16 applications support
• At least one session with an independent careers advisor before the completion of post-16 applications
