The Connexions service

The report discusses the “Connexions” service as part of the Edge Foundation’s “Learning from the past” project. Connexions was a UK government initiative between 2001 and 2012 to reduce social exclusion among young people and provide impartial information, advice and guidance primarily around post-compulsory education routes and careers. The report summarises what went well with the service and what the challenges were at the time of its operation.
