Creative Careers Toolkit: An Applied Active Learning Programme

The Creative Careers Toolkit is an active, applied learning programme developed for Careers Leads by the Waltham Forest Cultural Education Partnership.

 

The toolkit has been through 4 pilot stages, testing the toolkit across different educational phases. The Waltham Forest Cultural Education Partnership worked with Chingford Academies Trust, Waltham Forest School Sports Network and Leyton Sixth Form in developing this resource.

As part of National Careers Week 1-5 March 2021, Waltham Forest Cultural Education Partnership, in conjunction with Chingford Academies Trust, has developed a 2-part creative careers tutorial that students can watch at home or at school.

• "well crafted and very engaging because students know the local context. There is a good mix of practical and informational input so that students are engaged – the resources and questions really make them think.”  Willowfield School
