The outcome is young people who have the life skills to help them overcome obstacles and achieve, all done at a pace that is right for each individual and their capabilities. This work is ongoing as we seek to offer an even broader range of opportunities for our students. We know our students have a lot to offer, they can be confident and employable individuals and they can pursue their dreams and succeed as young adults. We want them to have as many opportunities available to them as their peers in a mainstream school or college. Confidence in practical matters and technical skills to succeed in a digital world are vital too, as are the basics of good timekeeping, being personable and looking presentable. All these attributes to being employment ready can be hard for young people with SEND.

So, we’re targeting people who are unemployed, economically inactive or returning to the labour market, those who want to change direction in their career, and those who have been impacted by Covid-19 – for example, having lost their job.

When the index increases, employment is likely to grow as well, and vice versa.

By Robb M. Stewart U.S. labor-market indicators point to jobs growth in the coming months, according to an index gauging trends. The Conference Board said.

The employment trends index is a leading composite measure for employment that aggregates eight indicators. The indicator was published after the U.S. Likewise, job openings and voluntary quits are below their historic highs but still above prepandemic levels," he said. Eren added the number of employees working in temporary help services, a component of the Employment Trends Index and a leading indicator for hiring, increased in January after falling for two consecutive months. Eren said hiring was outsized and broadly based in the January employment report, and robust hiring continues to keep the Employment Trends Index at a very high level. When the index increases, employment is likely to increase as well, whole turning points in the index suggest a change in the number of jobs is likely in the short term.
