Councils supporting youth transitions into work and learning: case studies

This report explores the range of innovations and services, led by local councils in the UK, to support young people's transition from school into further learning and work. The case study examples demonstrate how councils have been able to reduce 16 to 18 year old disengagement to an all-time low despite the recession and increasingly support older young people towards work. Evidence demonstrates the value of creating personal advisers for individuals, planning provision across places, and brokering leadership and support into work.
