Connexions Personal Advisers
Nottinghamshire
Learning Centre Connexions Personal Advisers work with young
people who are permanently excluded from school and young people
who are referred to Alternative to Exclusion/Pupil Placement
Panels. The Connexions Personal Adviser will support a young
person while they are out of school and during the ‘settling in
period’ when they are admitted into a new school. The purpose
of these Advisers is to help a young person cope with the
transition and to assist schools in understanding the specific
needs of a young person who has been excluded.
