Connexions- Cornwall and Devon

Connexions Cornwall and Devon provides impartial information, advice and guidance for all 13 – 19 year olds. Our purpose is to help engage all young people in learning and work. All young people have access to a Connexions Personal Adviser whether that is through school or colleges, Connexions centres or in youth and community groups. Connexions Personal Advisers can give information, advice and support about careers, education courses, training and jobs, and all the issues facing young people on health, benefits, housing and relationships.

Connexions bring together all agencies and voluntary groups to plan a coherent approach to services for young people.

Connexions Cornwall and Devon Ltd is committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children and young people and vulnerable adults and expects all employees and volunteers to share this commitment. It is also committed to the provision of independent information, advice and guidance to help individuals engage in learning and work.

Connexions are active partners in the CPR Excellence Cluster Partnership being represented on the partnership board as well as working with the CPR SMART team. Currently Connexions are also working in Camborne, Pool, and Redruth schools on the NRF project which is working with a group of year 10 students to improve attainment.
