§ Mr. Jim CunninghamTo ask the Secretary of State for Education and Skills what measures(a) have been and (b) will be introduced to make the mapping and tracking of vulnerable young people not in education, training or employment easier. [2963]
§ Margaret HodgeA comprehensive, national approach to tracking young people is being developed as part of the Connexions Service.
The system will enable Connexions partnerships to identify those not in learning more readily and support a more comprehensive approach to advice and guidance for those with multiple problems. It will also enable partnerships to support those who move between partnership areas more easily.
