About this contract

The purpose of this service is to increase the engagement through information, advice, guidance and coaching of disengaged and Not in Education, Employment or Training (NEET) young people from vulnerable and disadvantaged backgrounds who require additional support to access learning and employment opportunities. Target cohorts include but are not limited to those who are care leavers, teenage parents, young offenders or those who have learning difficulties and / or disabilities. The service will reflect localised needs and requirements and will work closely with other local authority teams and other agencies supporting these young people. The primary focus of this service will be support to key vulnerable groups (defined in section 2) to ensure that those young people who are furthest from the labour market and face significant barriers in being able to access education, training and employment are able to make informed choices about their education, employment or training options based on all available impartial information
