Our Framework
Our Unique Three-Step Learner Journey
Romodels is a unique three-step programme — Discover, Experience, Believe — that helps learners see what's possible, try it for themselves, and believe "that could be me."
1
Discover
​
Through real-life Romodels sharing their stories, learners from nursery to Year 9 explore innovative and often hidden careers, challenge stereotypes, and discover new possibilities.
​
The programme supports teachers to choose diverse Romodels from across Wales aligned to school themes, curriculum priorities, and local context.
2
Experience
Set by real-life Romodels, cross-curricular missions bring careers to life and show learners what different roles really involve while building integral skills.
​
Each mission includes structured activities, discussion prompts, and reflection, allowing teachers to adapt progression and deliver it in a single lesson or short sequence.
3
Believe
Stage-appropriate mini job descriptions help learners link classroom learning to future careers and see how their skills apply in real roles — supporting them to believe, “That could be me!”
​
Clear connections to emerging careers enable teachers to deliver authentic, future-focused learning and help learners see the relevance of their education.

Our Romodels
Romodels connect learners with real people in diverse careers from communities across Wales and beyond. Each Romodel shares their life, career journey, and what they do in their role.

Experience
Our missions
Each Romodel sets cross-curricular missions that teachers can choose from, supported by a learner guide with three-step activities and a teacher guide linked to the Statements of What Matters and Descriptions of Learning .
Each Romodel includes 4–6 cross-curricular missions, and teachers can choose how many to use, with a suggested sequence provided if helpful.
Additional resources mean teachers don't need to be experts in space weather, seagrass, or sea turtles to inspire their learners, while building integral skills through reflection.
Watch the video in our learning portal for an example of how this works in practice.
Our reflection guides
For primary schools, missions include our Integral Skills Superheroes, helping learners reflect on the knowledge and skills they've built in a fun, accessible way.
For secondary learners, reflections focus on the integral skills they're developing, encouraging deeper thinking about progress, strengths, and next steps.

Step 3
Believe
Learners build a genuine connection between classroom learning and real-life careers — moving from "that's interesting" to "that could be me."
