Key Routes as created in 2007 and for the use of anyone who is interested in finding out about a selection of careers and opportunities related to the fourteen lines of learning:

Construction & the Built Environment Creative & Media Engineering Society, Health & Development Information Technology Business, Administration & Finance Hair & Beauty

Hospitality Environmental & Land-Based Activities Manufacturing & Product Design Public Services Retail Business Sport & Active Leisure Travel & Tourism

The site is particulaly targeted at teachers who can use the information to compliment other resources they use in helping Learners find out more about the range of careers available.

The area of careers and the qualifications offered which can place a part in entering careers is large, diverse and constantly changing. To keep investigations into possible paths manageable only a selection of careers are considered on this site but there is a wealth of links to related areas which can form part of a new search. One of the purposes of the site is to act as a starting point that will encourage users to investigate other career lines. Again, due to the ever changing nature of opportunities, not all links can be guaranteed although they are reviewed and updated periodically.

In addition to the generic information and links additional local area information is available to participating areas. This is available to all users of the site by selecting a participating area from the drop down list at the top of the page.

If you are a local careers administrator you can enter your own local courses which will appear in a particular career route at Levels 1 to 8. To enquire further about this facility please contact:  Key Routes Support

The concept for the Key Routes site was initiated by Marilyn Birks, Director for Aimhigher Surrey. Research and content was written by Val Welsh of Origin.
