Careers guidance and student destinations built for inspection
Record every adviser meeting, work-experience placement and employer engagement against each student, then roll it up into an inspection-ready destination breakdown — all inside Odoo, with no dependency on any other school-management product.
The problem
Schools and colleges must prove where every leaver ends up — university, apprenticeship, employment, further training or NEET — and show the adviser meetings and placements that led there. Today that evidence lives in spreadsheets, email threads and loose notes, reconstructed under pressure when an inspection or statutory return is due, with no reliable audit trail of who entered or changed a data point.
The solution
Careers Guidance & Student Destinations gives every adviser interaction a structured, auto-sequenced record with a full chatter audit trail, then rolls leaver outcomes up into a live destination breakdown and leadership dashboard — the exact artefact inspectors and statutory returns demand, generated from data you already capture.
Everything a careers team needs to prove compliance
Every capability below is implemented in the module.
Dedicated careers records
A purpose-built list of every adviser meeting, placement and employer engagement — reference, date, student, interaction type and adviser all in dedicated, filterable columns.
Status workflow with audit trail
Each record moves Draft → Confirmed → Done with a full chatter history of who changed what and when, so you can prove compliance at inspection.
Auto-sequenced references
Careers records and student IDs are numbered automatically (CAR/2026/00001, STU/2026/00001), so every record is unique and traceable.
Destination outcome reporting
A live pivot of leaver outcomes — higher education, apprenticeship, employment, further training, gap year or NEET — broken down by cohort, the artefact inspectors and statutory returns actually require.
Leadership dashboard
An at-a-glance destination breakdown chart for senior leaders and governors, with no manual tallying of outcomes.
Placement calendar
A month calendar of work-experience and placement dates, colour-coded by interaction type, so advisers can see upcoming and overlapping placements at a glance.
Student-enrolment linkage
Each student record carries a smart button and inline notebook showing every linked careers record, plus a one-click compliance PDF.
Bulk actions
Confirm or complete multiple careers records at once from the list view, so officers manage a whole cohort without opening records one at a time.
Follow-ups & collaboration
Scheduled follow-up activities, internal notes and a followers mechanism keep advisers, teachers and admin coordinated on every student without leaving the record.
How it works
Record the interaction
Log an adviser meeting, placement or employer engagement against a student in seconds, with the adviser and date auto-filled.
Confirm and complete
Move the record through Draft, Confirmed and Done as the interaction progresses, with every change tracked in the chatter.
Track the destination
Set each leaver's destination category and detail as it becomes known, from higher education to NEET.
Report and export
Pull the live destination pivot and dashboard, or print a per-student compliance PDF, whenever leadership or an inspector asks.
