Tender description

The service is an integrated NEET Prevention and Reduction Service to support the Local Authority in meeting its statutory duties for participation, tracking and support for young people aged 16 and 17. The service will deliver a preventative, intelligence-led model that reduces the number of young people who are Not in Education, Employment or Training (NEET) and reduces Unknown destinations. The service is to support young people aged 13-16 who are at risk of becoming NEET; young people aged 16 and 17 who are NEET or at risk of disengagement; young people up to age 25 with an Education, Health and Care Plan; Manchester Care Leavers; and other identified vulnerable cohorts to re-engage in education, employment and training through the provision of holistic support, and appropriate referral and signposting to specialist services.
