This website is owned by Oxfordshire County Council and operated by the Education, Employment and Training Team, with oversight from the Digital Safeguarding Lead. By accessing this website you are agreeing to our terms and conditions.
You can use this website without sharing your personal data. We will ask you to share data sometimes, for example on our registration form, or when you notify us that you are Not in Employment Education or Training (NEET).
This is so we can help you better.
Oxfordshire County Council is very careful with the personal information you give us in this way. When you give us information, you consent to collection, processing and storage of the information you provide.
Before collecting personal details, we will tell you why we need the information and what it will be used for.
You can refuse to give us personal information or data.
If you have previously given us information and change your mind, you can ask us to delete it.
The information we collect helps us provide you with with better support and services. We use it to help you find the right route into education, employment or training, solve problems in your life and access the activities and opportunities that interest you.
Under some circumstances we are required by law to share information shared with us, for example: if we are told about a risk to a child. If we are required by law to share information given to us we will always do our best to keep the person who shared the information with us fully informed.
This website is from Oxfordshire Education, Employment and Training team and Targeted Youth Support Services and Oxfordshire Public Health. This is is part of Oxfordshire County Council. Its purpose is to provide accessible, flexible services and support to children, young people and families across Oxfordshire.
We contact young people regularly to find out if you are in education, employment or training. If you are not, we offer support.
You can ask for two services via this website, the Targeted Youth Support Service and the Education, Employment and Training Team. For these services the young person must consent.
If you are an adult you may also notify us of a young person who is not in education employment or training if you are sure they have left learning early, for example, if they have left school or college before the planned date.
Most people are only contacted a few times. This is because we know from records kept by schools, colleges or other services that you are in education, employment or training. We contact young people most in the summer when they are 16 or 17. This is to ensure that you have received a suitable offer of learning for September - this is called the September Guarantee. But sometimes we would need to contact you at other times, for example if records are lost, or if you have left your place of learning or not started as planned.
If you are Not in Employment, Education or Training (NEET) we will usually contact you every three months or more often. If you are not in regular contact and believe you should be, please fill in the registration form with your best contact details, and write NEET in the "Name of your employer, school, college or learning provider" field.
The Data Protection Act 1998 says information about you held by Oxfordshire County Council must be relevant to the purpose of our service. The purpose of our service is to help you move towards adult life. We hold paper and electronic records to help us provide our services to you. The data we hold includes:
The information held on you by Oxfordshire County Council can only be shared with other agencies with your permission, or where required by law. It will not be shared unless there is a good reason, for example, if it will help you stay in learning or employment. You are able to ‘opt out’ of having your data shared by contacting us on the number below.
Other organisations, like schools, share information with Oxfordshire County Council. These organisations will provide you with a privacy notice which explains how information they hold about you will be shared, and give details about how you can ask for information not to be shared, also known as ‘opting-out’.
Sometimes information can be shared without your consent, for example if required by law, or if there are concerns about your safety (Children's Act 1989), or if a court orders information to be shared. The Crime and Disorder Act 1998 also allows information to be shared without consent if this will prevent or detect a crime.
Workers only look at your information or data when they have a good reason, for example to provide better help or keep you safe. Your information will be treated with respect. Oxfordshire County Council Early will never sell personal information. We will only share personal information or data where are required to do so by law or if you have told us you consent to our doing this.
You can use all of our services, including the this website, without telling us who you are.
Oxfordshire County Council has no way of knowing if any person providing information through this site is who they say they are. Oxfordshire County Council will assume all information shared is genuine.
If you have any reason to think someone has provided false information to Oxfordshire County Council (for example: using your identity) please let us know and we will correct or delete the information.
