Alternative Educational Programmes

About us

The Alternative Educational Programmes team works with schools to create bespoke programmes that engage young people and meet identified needs in a number of different ways, such as 1-2-1 work, mentoring, sexual health drop-ins, school programs and group work.

We work in creative and challenging ways with young people to enable them to reach their full potential and contribute positively to their communities.

This includes:

• Developing, delivering and evaluating programmes or work to meet needs, targeting specific groups and issues
• Building positive relationships with young people to create opportunities for personal growth and development
• Motivating and re-integrating young people who display barriers to learning or are at risk of exclusion
• Encouraging participation and leadership
• Celebrating difference and diversity, contributing to cohesive communities
• Advocating on young people's behalf
• Engaging young people in formal and informal learning opportunities
• Delivering effective training for young people and professionals

How we can help you
After meeting to discuss your requirements we will create bespoke short or long term programmes, which are developed according to need; outcome led and are evaluated.

Work can be delivered with Youth Service Staff or in partnership with other Services/Agencies
