Careermag for Inclusion (Issue 8) is a dedicated edition of the SEND Careers Guide, designed to support students with special educational needs and disabilities (SEND), their educators, and inclusive employers. This issue is packed with accessible career information, inspiring success stories, and practical resources to help SEND students explore fulfilling career paths.

The guide is tailored for schools, colleges, and training providers looking for high-quality SEND resources. It also supports employers who are committed to building inclusive workplaces and offering accessible job opportunities. Whether you’re a student exploring your first steps into the world of work or an employer seeking to diversify your workforce, this guide offers something for everyone.

Inside, readers will find:

  • Real-life success stories from SEND individuals who have overcome barriers and built meaningful careers.
  • Advice from inclusive employers on how to create accessible recruitment processes and supportive work environments.
  • Information on apprenticeships, supported internships, and inclusive work placements.
  • Guidance for educators and parents on how to support SEND students in their career journeys.

The SEND Careers Guide also highlights organisations and initiatives that champion inclusion, such as Disability Confident employers and inclusive training providers. It encourages collaboration between education and industry to ensure that all young people, regardless of ability, have access to meaningful career opportunities.

This issue of Careermag is more than just a publication—it’s a movement towards a more inclusive future. By sharing knowledge, celebrating diversity, and promoting accessibility, we can help SEND students unlock their potential and thrive in the workplace.
