We are proud of our 16+ Team, and the great work they do with young people to make sure that they move from school to a ‘positive destination’. Lots happens in this regard while students are on our school roll, but it’s important too to know that, even when students have left school, our 16+ Team are still there for young people, and are very keen to support and work with them.
