Welcome to the
December 2008

Dear PAs, Managers and other colleagues,
 
What a year of hard work – but what results!
 
More CLC young people than ever are in learning (86.4%), NEET levels are the lowest ever (6.5%) and Not Knowns too (5.1%).
 
It’s true that LCCIS has helped a lot – finding young people out of our area and the September Guarantee has been a good (if arduous) framework to keep us on task.
 
But most of all it’s down to your hard work – tirelessly and relentlessly supporting young people to move forward.
 
I hope you are able to take some leave during this period to enjoy the holiday and look forward to working together in 2009.
 
Chris Heaume, Chief Executive, CLC
