A high number of NEETs are experiencing mental health problems, and many are struggling to access services and education. Additional short term English and Maths sessions are required to support with missed learning opportunities due to the pandemic. Lot 1 Support for students to improve English and Maths grades to ensure they can progress in education. This provision can be delivered in any way that suits the needs of the learners.
