The role of Progression Officer within our school is to provide students with quality information 

& prepare them for the wide range of choices open to them after life at Brownhill Learning Community.

I ensure visits to careers fairs, universities and training providers are engaging and informative and provide the 

young people whom we work with have the knowledge and skills they will need to make informed choices.

I work alongside our careers advisor from Positive Steps to produce & provide the most relevant 

information our students will need for after Year 11 either in further Education or Employment.
