Exam results day support
For young people who received their results but are not sure what to do next, the service offers careers interviews in person, over the phone or via video. You can watch our results day video and another video from Maniul, who is currently a Degree Apprentice at Amazon and was supported by us.
The Year 11 guide, Year 13 guide and Sixth Form and College Enrolment and Application list also has useful information. Our team of Advisers will be available in schools/colleges on the morning of A level/BTEC/T Level and GCSE results day.
Young people can also drop into our Centre at Idea Store, Watney Market on 260 Commercial Rd, E1 2FB on the afternoon of the 15 August and 22 August from 2 to 4.30pm.
Alternatively, we will offer careers interviews over the phone or via video. You can contact us at youngworkpath@towerhamlets.gov.uk or on 0800 3581 2410 (free phone) or 0207 364 1401. We expect to be very busy, so please do be patient!
