It is clearly documented that young people need support when moving on, especially after a positive placement.
We are aware of our responsibility to provide a full range of opportunities so young people can grow into valued and effective life long learners and successful adults.
All our work is directed towards providing a young person with an opportunity to fulfil their potential.
- Tall Trees and no 76 offer a fine opportunity for young people to 'bridge' the gap between school and moving towards more independent living.
- We have many successful experiences of young people sustaining links with mainstream schools and being in our care; or for young people who move to mainstream educational options.
- We provide opportunities to experience adventure, cultural, leisure and sports activities building confidence and life skills.
- Establishing links with Through Care Services and work to promote independent life skills are crucial.
- Links with colleges, work experience and careers are widely available.
- We can offer continued support if requested, ‘Reaching Out’ beyond a placement.
