Employment Pathways Toolkit: Self Assessment Tool for Local Authority Areas

The National Development Team for Inclusion updated this toolkit in April 2022 to enable local areas to assess the extent of the data being collected on young people’s progress into paid employment, as well as to measure how well placed the partner organisations in the area are to support an effective pathway into work for young people with SEND.

Originally produced by members of the Employment is Everyone's Business project team, this toolkit was piloted with local authorities involved in the project. It is designed to enable local areas to assess the extent of the data being collected on young people’s progress into paid employment, as well as to measure how well placed the partner organisations in the area are to support an effective pathway into work for young people with SEND. It can also be used over time to measure progress and develop an action plan for improvements.
