Secondary pupils

Young people have been some of the hardest hit by the pandemic. The Young Person’s Guarantee was launched in November 2020 to help protect young people from the economic impact of COVID-19.
The Young Person’s Guarantee aims within two years to give all young people, aged 16-24 in Scotland, the chance to succeed through the opportunity of a job, apprenticeship, education, training or volunteering.
Visit the Young Person's Guarantee website to find out what opportunities are available or get in touch with the Angus Council Skills Team at skillsteam@angus.gov.uk or 01307 492039.
