Hello parentS & carers

Support a young person’s skills entitlement and their progression pathway.
Help them to navigate their journey to the world of work, and be prepared, feeling confident in giving them advice or signposting to their next steps. Build your understanding of current and future opportunities for your young person to study and learn in an ever changing world.
The on-demand recording of this session will be available to view at the start of the Autumn term.
