The shared vision of the programme is that ‘students leaving Lode Heath will have the skills, knowledge and dynamism to reach their full career potential, to meet the needs of employers and to contribute to the economic growth of the borough and  GBS LEP’. Therefore we are always looking to engage with local businesses to improve the support we can offer our students and staff in the delivery of the curriculum and wider opportunities, please do make contact with our careers leader if you can offer your assistance. 

The careers leader for Lode Heath School is Mr Gareth Davies (gjdavies@lodeheath.org.uk) or 0121 272 3850. The school's CEC Enterprise Advisor is Mr Andrew Cole, who is employed as a Director for the NEC Group. Mr Cole is also Vice Chair of the Arden Multi Academy trust providing governance and oversight of careers and work related learning activity. 

For more support or guidance please also refer to the following links with our preferred partner - Barclays Life Skills. 

Our careers programme is outlined in our Student CPD Programme.
