Careers Education and Employability
The Lindfield School views learners’ career development as an integral part of their education which includes:
- a process of personal and social development which begins in the home and continues through adult life.
- a process of constructive learning whereby learners are given opportunities, experiences, and responsibilities to equip them for their adult life.
- coping with choices and changes, and where possible, making informed decisions.
- opportunities to consolidate and generalise skills to a range of contexts in the community
- opportunities to gain relevant accreditation in preparation for work and employability
The Lindfield School first achieved the Investors in Careers Award in April 2013. We have continued to renew the award every three years, and we are currently working towards our next renewal for May 2023.

The Standard provides a clear framework for the requirements of:

- The Quality on Careers Standard through Investors in Careers
