Newcastle Careers and Guidance Team for Young People

The Newcastle Careers and Guidance Team offers impartial and confidential careers information, advice and support to young people up to the age of 19 without an Education Health and Care Plan (EHC plan) and up to 25 for those with an EHC plan, if they live in Newcastle or attend a Newcastle school.  

Careers Advisers can support you to make positive choices about your future with information about college courses, apprenticeships, 6th form in schools, employment and a range of other options depending on your needs and interests.

We can also help you with advice on a wide range of lifestyle issues and volunteering opportunities. If you need more specialist support we can put you in touch with the right people through our networks and partnerships.
