Why upgrade to Compass+?
Compass+ enables you to improve careers provision for each and every young person in your school.
It is available to secondary schools, special schools, sixth-forms and PRUs in England, and is powered by learner-level data through the school’s Management Information System (MIS).
If you are an eligible school with a compatible MIS, you can log in to your Compass account and upgrade to Compass+. See our How to upgrade to Compass+ guide for more details.
