Isn Connexions just a re-branded Careers Service?
No. Careers guidance is part of that service, but there are other barriers that young people need to overcome. Some require advice on health, lifestyle, housing, financial support or other personal issues to assist them in achieving their goals. Connexions is ready to provide or coordinate that help. Where multiple barriers to learning and achievement exist, Connexions also offers personal support and advice and co-ordinated access to specialist help as needed.
