The Education, Employment and Training Team are part of the Education Service. We provide post-16 tracking/monitoring of participation in EET and support for post-16 young people who are not in education, employment or training (NEET) or at risk of NEET up until the September after their 18th birthday.
This support is extended up until the age of 25 for anyone who has been care-experienced or has an EHCP (education, health and care plan). In addition, our website, www.oxme.info and online services provide activities to support well-being, information, participation and opportunities for young people. This includes the Practitioner Toolkit, a multi-agency resource space where you can download ready-to-use tools to support work with young people.
