Out of learning?

All young people need to continue in education or training until they are aged 18 (School Year 13).

Most young people stay in school, go to college or get an apprenticeship. But some young people may need extra support to decide what to do next, or may benefit from more flexible learning options. 

Support is available 

If you are aged 16-18 in Oxfordshire (or up to 25 if you have an Education Health Care Plan (EHCP) or are care experienced) and are not in employment, education or training (NEET), support is available to help you explore your next steps.

You can:

1. Fill in the Oxfordshire EET form to request support 
2. Update or register your details with Oxfordshire County Council to let us know where you are learning 

Finding the right support

If you are not sure what to do next, support is available to help you understand your options, explore different opportunities and think about what could work for you.

You can download our information sheet to find out more about the support available to young people in Oxfordshire.
