Working with many agencies

Not identified early enough
Lack of effective assessment of needs and aspirations
Feelings of failure and low self esteem – too often reinforced through inappropriate or badly planned or managed intervention

Most employers:
Have had a poor experience of young people
Have struggled to recruit into entry level posts
Have identified significant skills gaps

Young people need:
to be identified early effective assessment of needs and aspirations an individualised training plan to achieve an
outcome - one size does not fit all to be in control to measure their progress to always be in the right place, with the right
support at the right time to decide they are ready to progress to work or
further education/training

there must be a starting point where they want to go and how to get there what will be required of them in work, college
or a training place what they progress onto will require dedication
