For councils & providers
Re-engagement that leads somewhere
Young people who are NEET have usually had enough of classrooms that did not work for them. MIAG programmes start where they are, rebuild confidence with practical content, and end with a route — to college, training or employment.
- Adaptable 6–12 week programmes, shaped around each cohort
- Practical money and life skills alongside core maths and English
- A functional skills pathway in development for formal progression
The problem
Generic provision bounces off the young people who need it most
NEET young people are not one group. Some need basic literacy and numeracy; some need to learn how a payslip, a tenancy or a budget works; almost all need teaching that does not judge them for what they missed.
Provision that runs to a fixed classroom timetable, marks in red pen and assumes prior knowledge loses them in the first week.
Our approach
How MIAG solves it
Programmes that adapt, 6 to 12 weeks
Build each programme from live courses: £Smart Start money skills, Foundations for Life, and curriculum maths and English units pitched at the right level. Run it in a centre, a drop-in, or at home — the platform works wherever there is a browser.
Teaching designed for a second chance
Avatar tutors model every skill before asking for anything back (I Do, We Do, You Do), and marking is always a green tick or another attempt with a hint. Learners rebuild the habit of succeeding.
Evidence for funders, routes for learners
Per-learner tracking gives you engagement and progress data for commissioners, and gives each young person a concrete record of what they can now do — the raw material for a college application or interview.
What is included
- £Smart Start financial literacy — 13 modules on money, payslips, scams, bills and debt
- Foundations for Life — 12 modules of independent living skills
- Curriculum maths and English units, selected to fit each learner
- Self-paced Learn mode plus Present mode for group sessions
- Per-learner progress tracking with at-risk flags
- Cohort-level reporting for commissioners and funders
Functional skills pathway in development
We are mapping an Entry 1 – Level 2 functional skills pathway from our existing maths and English frameworks. It is designed to give NEET programmes a formal qualification route — register interest and we will keep you informed.
