Jo Bishop is a careers professional with over 20 years of experience working in schools, colleges and universities. In previous roles, she has embedded innovative and successful careers education programmes using university and employer partnerships to raise aspirations, inform choices and widen access to both apprenticeships and higher education.

Your students can research pathways, careers, employers and universities.
Students can use our experiences of work and university to make informed decisions about their next steps and gain impressive experience that they can add to their future applications.
Students secure their next steps after school or college by applying for opportunities through Springpod.
Springpod experiences can be integrated into career programmes so that students can explore and broaden their career ideas, develop industry-relevant skills and gain real experience of work-related tasks to evidence in their applications to apprenticeships, jobs or university.
We have mapped our experiences to the CDI's (Career Development Institute) Career Development Framework. All Springpod experiences focus on identifying and developing the skills needed to navigate through what can feel like a maze of opportunities. Our experiences can help young people stand out from the crowd and as well as offering them a real confidence boost in an application process, whatever pathway they choose.
We make sure our experiences enable schools to evidence progress towards achieving Gatsby Benchmarks.
Springpod can be used with students in any year group. As they move from exploring careers to applying for opportunities, they will be able to unlock new opportunities.
We're integrated with the National Careers Service and have the latest LMI information across the platform.
Students can choose from numerous programmes so that they can experience their industry or degree of choice.
Our programmes are flexible and self-led meaning students can work at their own pace with support from teachers if needed.
Content is carefully planned taking into account different learning styles.
Our work experience programmes connect what students learn in the classroom with the real world skills they’ll need for work.
Our university subject spotlights allow students to think about what career options might be available from a wide range of subjects.
Your students can take part in work experience programmes where they'll be able to ask questions to industry professionals and interact with the employers within their chosen industry.
Our work experience programmes showcase the day-to-day life across various careers, enabling students to explore workplaces and complete real workplace-related activities.
Each experience varies but they can involve feedback and opportunities to interact with employers in a safeguarded environment.
Our university subject spotlights help students experience a taste of what university life could be like.
They can explore subjects in depth, develop their academic skills and super-curricular knowledge to inform their subject choices and strengthen their applications.
