More choices, more chances (MCMC)

East Lothian Council is fully committed to More Choices, More Chances. This is a national initiative that helps young people who are not in education, employment or training by providing additional support to help them to move into learning or employment. We are providing a wide range of opportunities for school leavers under the initiative.
