Head of Careers

St Lawrence College, England

Used Morrisby daily for 1-2 years

Feb 2022

Morrisby is at the core of our all-school careers provision. The more we use it, the more value we get from it.... and we still haven't used it to its full potential. Morrisby has simplified KS3 & KS4 careers lessons in PSHE, and streamlined A-Level & university course choices. We use Morrisby Profiling in 5th form (y11) for the whole cohort and for new starters in 6th form. Profiling gives us the information to have meaningful conversations about career options and subject choices for further study. I rated Morrisby a 10/10 for the positive impact it has had on our students, the ease with which we can log our progression towards the Gatsby Benchmarks, the ability to have a seamless all-school provision from Y7 through Y13. Morrisby (Careers / Profiling / Tracker / Higher) has simplified my role as Head of Careers, allowed parents, tutors and teachers to get more involved with student decisions, and has enhanced what we are able to offer our students. Highly recommended!

Antonia Robinson found Morrisby:
  • Significantly provides school data
    Testing outcomes that map perfectly across other trusted data sources.
  • Significantly increases student collaboration
    Students collaborate in tutor groups on Careers based projects from Morrisby Careers / Tracker
  • Significantly improves parent engagement
    As a boarding and day school communication with our students' parents is of vital importance. The Parental Invitation option on Morrisby Profile means that parents can be part of the process of choosing A-Level and University courses. As Head of Careers I receive many emails from parents who appreciate this facility to look at and discuss the results with their children, regardless of how far they may live from the school.
  • Significantly builds student knowledge
    We use Morrisby Careers from Y7 through Y13 and students build a knowledge base over time. The activities and lesson plans in Tracker make this easy. When students are well informed about the world of work, CVs, the nuances of different career options and post-18 pathways, conversations and decisions about 'life after school' are simplified. Morrisby has helped our students have a broader and deeper knowledge of the world of work, career options and the various ways to achieve these goals.
