As part of the careers guidance and education programme we deliver at Blackfen School for Girls your child has access to New Kudos, the latest program from CASCAID.  New Kudos is accessible online and we are encouraging the use of it at home to involve parents with the important decisions your child has to make about their future options. New Kudos will help your child to assess their interests and skills, as well as letting them explore and research different education and career options, enabling them to make informed decisions about their future.

To access the program please visit www.cascaid.co.uk/newkudos and click on the log in button, your child can then log in using the access details given to them by Mrs Smith.

Username: student email address

Password: students should know this but if they have forgotten if they go to the website via the link above and click 'Forgotten your details?', students just enter their email address and they will be a emailed a link to change their password.

All CASCAID programs come with a comprehensive range of support materials including the Parents’/Carers’ Guide to Careers Education & Guidance. This Guide will help you understand the options available to your child at each transition stage.

To view the Parents’ Guide please visit www.cascaid.co.uk/support
