Young People in Care and Care Leavers
Aimhigher has funded a special Easter school and Summer schools in generic skills development workshops and in the Arts and Media. Additional tutor support for year 9 and year 11 students has helped to build confidence in core academic subjects. A training programme for social workers, foster carers, school governors and designated teachers has been delivered to raise awareness of the role they can play in positively encouraging young people to progress to university education.
