The University of London Careers Service have developed a new free, impartial and accurate online careers course resource for school and college students (aged 16-18), to help them learn more and make good, well-informed career decisions about their post-18 careers options.

This resource is designed to support Careers Leaders and other staff involved in the transition process from Key Stage 2 into Key Stage 3, exploring opportunities to embed careers activities and parental engagement across the full range of transition opportunities.

It takes you through the three phases:

1. Decision making (Y4,5,6) while children and parents /carers are still considering their options
2. Decision made (Y6) once the children have been allocated their secondary school
3. Started (Y7) once the children have started their secondary school.

Developed by Young Money (part of Young Enterprise) this resource aims to develop young people's understanding of managing their money, making financial decisions, staying safe online and the world of work. 

This is an essential resource as it is specifically designed to ensure that pupils with mild to moderate special educational needs are given the opportunity to develop financial capability.
