Education, training and work

When you are leaving school or college, it’s time to think about what you want to do in the future!

Do you want to go to University, do some particular training?

Do you want to work in a certain field? We all have different ideas about what we want to do in the future – sometimes it can be hard to make this decision.

We currently have a Connexions worker based in the Leaving Care team.  We also have an Education Support Officer who can give you advice, offer study support and help with University applications. They will work with your Personal Advisor to make sure that you receive proper support from Connexions, your school or college, or a careers centre – depending what you need. It is their job to check if you are linked to any other Connexions worker, and will help you. All young people need some guidance to know their options for the future.

We want you to have all of the support and encouragement to do the best you can!!
