  4. The Issue • 75m young people workless across the world; • Three times more likely to be unemployed than other age groups; • 958,000 (20.7%) 16-24 year olds unemployed nationally; • Youth unemployment remaining static whilst general unemployment falls; • 18.1% (3,875) 16-24 year olds unemployed in Nottingham; But... • Employers increasingly reporting skills gaps and an inability to fill vacancies.

  5. The Changing Economy • Fewer entry level jobs; • Increased competition for some positions; • Lack of understanding by young people and parents about the new economy – 93% of young people feel that they are not provided with information that they need to make informed choices; • How closely do young people’s aspirations, skills provision and economic demand match? • One third of young people choose vocational routes in UK compared to two thirds in Germany and Austria, where there are higher skills and lower unemployment.

  6. The Strategy • Create more employment opportunities; • De-risk recruitment for employers. • ATAs, wage incentive schemes, centralised recruitment measures. • Prepare young people for work; • Increase employer engagement with young people. • Ensure young people have employability skills required through work related learning, work experience, business mentors and Traineeships. • Improve transitions into work • Make the process of applying for positions more straight forward. • Use of IAG in schools and FE, Universal Jobsmatch, work trials, jobs fairs.

In Context: our area • 80% of students are in the bottom 10% nationally for indices of multiple deprivation (IMD) and 40% are in the bottom 5%. • 54% of students are in the bottom 10% for the indices of deprivation affecting children (IDACI) and 11% are in the bottom 5%. • 42.5% (3 times the national average) of students attending the academy are eligible for free school meals (65% have below average income within the family). The vast majority of students are of White British heritage whose first language is English. 71.4% of all students will graduate from Year 11 with at least one week of work experience plus pre-employment training.  100% students will have support to help with college choices and careers, advice & guidance.

  17. What we do to prepare young people for the world of work • 6 hour pre-work placement programme • Self Awareness: Introduce the world of crocodiles • Thinking about the world of work (for themselves) • Take control of their communications with employers • Develop the confidence to apply for a job • Manage their own work placement • Review their learning • Skills to find and keep a job
