Youth Guarantee
The question
To ask the Secretary of State for Work and Pensions, what assessment her Department has made of the potential implications for her policies of the outcomes of the Youth Guarantee Trailblazer schemes since its launch.
Answered by Alison McGovern
Since launching in Spring, the eight Youth Guarantee Trailblazers are testing a range of localised support to reduce the number of young people who are not in education, employment or training.
The eight Trailblazer areas are actively identifying and engaging at risk or disengaged young people to help them access tailored support to move into employment and training opportunities through local connections with employers and delivery partners.
The findings of the local and national evaluations will inform our approach to wider roll-out of the Youth Guarantee.
To further improve outcomes for young people, we have committed to continue funding the Youth Guarantee Trailblazers in 2026/27 to enable more young people to access employment, education and training opportunities.
