TVCParents' Page

The TVC office is very happy to receive calls from parents but we have decided to create a 'frequently asked questions' page, just for the carers of our young learners. We know how difficult it is trying to do your best for young people who are struggling through the most challenging of times. If we can help we are pleased to do so. The following information reflects the advice and information we have recently provided to individuals who have contacted us.

You may like to look at some of the answers we have given to the young people on the Students Page.

If you have a question that is not answered here please call or email us at tvc@plymouth.gov.uk and we will do our best to help you.
