“Connexions… working in partnership with parents and carers to help young people achieve”

Welcome


If you’re a parent or carer of a young person in Greater Merseyside,
then Greater Merseyside Connexions Partnership can help you to
help them achieve their best.

Research*  shows that parents and carers are often a big
influence on young people’s career decisions, so the
encouragement, support and information you give them
can
make a big difference to their success.

We understand the vital role that you have in helping and
supporting your child. So, as well as helping young people,
our job is also to support you, 
by making sure that you have
the information and advice you need to support your child
with
the choices and decisions they face.

The parent/carer section of our website tells you more about
Connexions and gives you information that will be useful to you
in helping your child with the choices facing them from year 9
onwards,
as well as information and advice on a range of other
matters
and links to useful websites


Did you know that Connexions don't only help young people with their
decisions about courses, work and training?

We offer advice and guidance on a wide range of issues
including choices and options at school, careers, work and study
through to housing, money, health, leisure and more.
