Careers Support Solutions
The Industry Wide Problem: With the closure of Connexions young people at school leaving age are now suffering from a lack of careers advice. The closure is likely to affect NEETS (Not in Education or Employment) particularly badly with many in this bracket unlikely to use the supplementary phone services provided. Many young people who are disadvantaged or underperforming struggle to find suitable role models and as a result are likely to have a lower level of aspiration. The Tess Group Solution: The Tess Group has utilised its ability to deliver qualifications to design an apprenticeship for young people leaving school to offer their communication and careers advise to mentor younger students on the road to success. The apprentices will gain fully funded qualifications in advice and guidance as well as giving them an avenue to go on to university or enhance their CV by using their mentoring skills. The solution will see these apprentices working within schools and institutions to connect with the students to support their progress and devise action plans that will enable young people to work from their goal to create future success. Key Benefits of Tess Careers Advice Enhance school grades for mentored students Create role models that show what you can do if you put your mind to it Provide young people with an empowered, fit for future, but yet face to face in concept, approach to careers advice. Reduce the amount of future NEETS within local population Allow the apprenticeship mentors valuable work time that could spark an interest in offering further mentoring to disadvantaged people, work in jobs that show off their advice and guidance qualifications or produce the next top quality teacher than can identifyand communicate successfully with young people.
