Exam Results? Don't Panic!
EXPERTS will be on hand to help Somerset students plan their next move after they get their Exam results Advisers from Connect South West who run the careers service arm of Connexions in Somerset will be available to offer careers information, advice and guidance at Connexions access points across the county.
As usual our centres across Somerset will be open to help students who, for whatever reason, may need to re-assess their options and details of our centres and opening times can be found on this website under the contact us tab.
The message is not to panic and be ready to explore all the possibilities.
Connect South West’s Chief Executive Rachel Bendall said:“Whether exam results are better than expected or you are disappointed with your results there are a wide range of opportunities to explore, many of which will provide both new and exciting options that you may not have previously considered.”
“We have got all the up-to-date information and we are here to help. Talk to one of our advisers, you have nothing to lose and potentially so much to gain."
Help is free, accessible and confidential - and may even come from an adviser who has already helped the student at school or college.
Young people (and their parents and carers) can drop into a one of our centres, make an appointment beforehand, or access a wealth of knowledge through this website.
There is also an out-of-hours telephone helpline on 080 800 13 2 19 or you can text 077664 13 2 19 or access www.connexions-direct.com.
